[Tutorial] Properly Securing Passwords
#7

If you hash the hash twice, I don't really see the point. Hashing it twice only makes the hacker have to crack the code twice for each attempt at cracking the raw password.

Sure, that makes the process take twice as long, but that is not comparable to sixty five thousand times as long, which makes hacking it virtually impossible.

What is the highest number of times I can hash without making the server hang or lag?
