GPUs love hashing things, do you think ArrayFire would make that easy to do? I would LOVE to use the library to create an opensource GPU cracking program. Hashcat is amazing but is closed source. I am giddy with excitement at the prospect. Thanks!

I am not sure how much ArrayFire can help with hashing. I need to read more to understand it better.
mostly a matter of making bitwise & arithmetic operations in parallel over integers (shift, xor, add etc..)
Ah in that case ArrayFire can certainly help!
