9-25 characters based on 3-5 letters per word It would still take a very long time but remember we're not iterating by character anymore. Each word is a 'character' and our alphabet is the english dictionary. So for the example above, we have to guess 5 slots in the passphrase and each slot has [number of words in english dict] possibilities. And also we'd probably start guessing assuming 2 word passphrases and have to exhaust all of 2, 3 and 4 before we start guessing 5 word combinations. So how rusty is your combinatorics? :)
