# sand leek
## experimental vanity onion address whatchamacallit

Still early days.
Warning: this tool doesn't yet do sanity checking on the keys produced.
Use at your own risk and verify the keys' sanity yourself.

## Future work
I have every intention to add GPU capability to sand leek.

Additionally, as outlined above, sand leek really needs to be verifying
that keys are sane.

## Benchmarks
Preliminary benching shows sand leek to be faster than some of the other
similar tools out there when pushing work across cores.

| CPU(s)                                      | Max throughput | -t |
|---------------------------------------------|---------------:|---:|
| 2× Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2670 0 @ 2.60GHz |        94 MH/s | 16 |
| Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6700 CPU @ 3.40GHz     |        38 MH/s |  8 |
| AMD A4-1200 APU with Radeon(TM) HD Graphics |       2.3 MH/s |  2 |

## Inspiration
sand leek was greatly inspired by schallot, escahlot and scallion.
