I've done a simple comparison back in April and never pushed this to the website.
Now I think I won't write much about it, but I don't want to loose those results
either.

The two don't work the same, the files were different in terms of sorting.

## John

- <https://www.openwall.com/john/>

```console
$ john --mask='05253?d?d?d?d?d' --min-length=9 --max-length=10 --stdout > john_file
