It would be helpful to know the default work factor for the bcrypt hash in that Python library, since none was provided. Apparently it's 12: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/bcrypt/2.0.0



I guessed it was one, and answered a couple orders of magnitude off. I'm going to give myself partial credit, since I actually thought about the work factor before answering. But not enough to go read the docs, unlike you!
