Detection Framework Stegbreak performance on a 1200 MHz Pentium III: JPHide speed: Approximately 15,000 words/s. 300 images with a 577,000 word dictionary take 10 days. Slow because of expensive key schedule computation. Only some key schedule caching possible. Outguess speed: Approximately 47,000 words/s. With a large dictionary finds a candidate for almost every image. JSteg-Shell speed: Approximately 112,000 words/s. Fast enough to do a brute-force search of 40-bit key space.
