Well, the goal of multithreading with POA is to overcome network latency. Almost all of the attacks I implement are online attacks against web apps. POA doesn't require much CPU, it just requires sending lots of requests, retrieving an average of 1/8th of a bit of information per request (or thereabouts). As we add interesting offline attacks, CUDA/OpenCL or something similar would make a lot of sense though. > issues sect. of project is empty; no links to a mailing list. where is > technical discussion best directed? It is a young project. This first release and notice was just to generate some buzz and see who is interested in using it and/or contributing. Feel free to post an issue to the Google code site if you have any specific questions or just email me privately. I can set up a mailing list once there's enough chatter.
