The projects needs documentation discussing:

  • How to build the project.
  • Why bscrypt was created, such as comparison to other password hashing functions.
  • How to implement bscrypt along with test vectors.
  • Recommended cost settings and their different performance metrics.
  • Why being cache hard is important and how it compares to memory hardness.
  • Etc.

    I was working on this at DEFCON and on the plane home. Also most of this was planned but didn't have time. I should probably add a check list:

    • How to build the project.
    • Why bscrypt was created, such as comparison to other password hashing functions.
    • How to implement bscrypt along with test vectors.
    • Recommended cost settings and their different performance metrics.
    • Why being cache hard is important and how it compares to memory hardness.
    • AVX2
    • More code documentation
    • JS version

    I'll probably commit changes tomorrow.
