I am looking for information on the implementation of md5 algorithm using vectorization. I am interested in the details of SSE* and the AVX instructions.Are there any ready-made library with support for vectorization?

The first question you should ask yourself is why do you need MD5 anymore? – Kris Feb 04 '12 at 21:12

I write a brute force and I want to use all the CPU. Also, the practice of working with SIMD extensions – DrEvil35 Feb 04 '12 at 21:17

OK, just wanted to warn not to use it for any applications. But cracking it is ok :) – Kris Feb 04 '12 at 21:20

You could try looking at John the Ripper, they used to have highly optimized implementations of various cryptographic algorithms used to hash passwords.
