I thought GPUs killed rainbow tables? (the storage space alone makes them impractical compared to cracking realtime)


Not that that says much, but I am not aware of that. More importantly, googling for "GPU vs rainbow table" leads me to phrases such as "a fully GPU accelerated set of rainbow table tools". Or has the term changed meaning?



Thanks.
