jwtcrack vs hashcat performance

[quentusrex]

Have you checked if there is a way to have hashcat try to crack the jwt after it's been transformed/reformatted? I'd be curious how your implementation compares. Code looks good.

I have not checked, but I expect that if hashcat can crack json web tokens, then it is likely faster. jwtcrack makes no use of your GPU, for example.

True, GPU would likely be faster to find collisions, but hashcat does allow you to restrict the computations to the CPU.
