| Summary | 0000485: Every sha1/md5 iteration should cost evals | ||||
| Description | Hi, the evaluation cost for sha1() or md5() calls is constant, regardless of the given iteration count. So it is possible, to calculate the hash sum with __INT_MAX__ iterations which would probably halt a MUD for over an hour. Even eval costs of 1 per iteration is a bit cheap, because the hash calculation is very CPU intensive. (This could halt our MUD for up to half a second per thread). So, I would recommend 5 to 10 eval points per iteration. Greetings, Gnomi. | ||||
