Hi,

I tried to hack something, it is not perfect but it could provide some overview,
but please take it with a grain of (non-crypto) salt :-)

- using memory table from Steve (128k/1M/16M/128M)

- test forks N processes, parent waits 60 seconds (in this tests) and then
*waits* for all children to finish the last hash (this time is measured).
I am using SHM quite stupid way here to sync it, but it works it this case.
(Pufferfish and Argon1 on 100MiB run time exceeds 60 seconds, so measurement
is really not reliable here.)

(Moreover, all hashes all the same but this should not be a problem.)

- config is here Lenovo x230, dual-core with hyperthreading enabled
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mbroz/PHCtest/master/output/round2_Lenovo_X230_i5_16G/lscpu

- it increases # processes up to 8, > 4 cpu it should not add anything.

Output looks like this:

128kiB
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mbroz/PHCtest/master/output/round2_Lenovo_X230_i5_16G/r_parallel_0/parallel_threads_0.png

1MiB
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mbroz/PHCtest/master/output/round2_Lenovo_X230_i5_16G/r_parallel_1/parallel_threads_1.png

16MiB
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mbroz/PHCtest/master/output/round2_Lenovo_X230_i5_16G/r_parallel_2/parallel_threads_2.png

128MiB
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mbroz/PHCtest/master/output/round2_Lenovo_X230_i5_16G/r_parallel_3/parallel_threads_3.png

NOTE: yescrypt is here updated to yescrypt-opt, reference implementation is no longer used.
Catena is updated as well (but this is not performance related).

I guess there are some bugs, pls let me know if you spot something apparently wrong there,
I partially hacked it during a meeting with many distractions:-)

I'll update other test run & report later, need to run everything again and it will take several hours.

I also added yescrypt with reduced 2 PWXrounds to repo, but I guess it makes sense only
for "normalized" test chart...

Thanks,
Milan
