Theoretically speaking, shouldn't a solid salt + hash algorithm always result in a fixed-length string no matter the input password?

- atonse 11y agoIt should, but I think parent is talking about the input string having a limitation, which limits the amount of combinations you could have in your password. My original comment still stands, though, as 20 characters is a large amount of combinations (although I just did some quick calculations to find it's still less than 128 bits... 114 or so).
