You mean doing multiple rounds of hashing, like PBKDF2? There are some better algorithms than that now, but yeah, trying to slow down the computation required

You mean doing multiple rounds of hashing, like PBKDF2? There are some better algorithms than that now, but yeah, trying to slow down the computation required to crack the password is a useful defence.
