    argon2id is one of those newer algorithms created specifically to make cracking infeasible and protect against certain side channel attacks.

    An example performance from an Nvidia 90HX for LUKS is:

    Hash-Mode 34100 (LUKS v2 argon2 + SHA-256 + AES) [Iterations: 16]

    Speed.#01…: 9 H/s (53.28ms) @ Accel:8 Loops:1 Thr:32 Vec:1

    So correctly implemented, basically impossible lol.

    Hashcat also added recent support for argon2id standalone and keepassxc db, so I’ll see if I can run my own benchmark just to see what it shows.

      Thanks! I was curious because I am using keepass and I do use argon2id lol. I was a bit skeptical because the 2s benchmark parameter seems oddly small, but nice knowing that it is actually quite good.
