The author of this piece was doing about 156 hashes per second and after just over five days, he had only gone through and cracked 4,000 account passwords--we're talking 0.0001% of Ashley Madison's supposed userbase here. To run just over the 14,000,000 passwords from RockYou.txt on every single user account from AM, it would take up to at least two billion years.
