Im assuming its one machine but sure if its more then its a different issue.

Dividing by 5 due to my assumption above that only 5 attempts can be made before the login is locked and the IP s banned for at least one hour. So therefore 5 attempts per hour. Anyway, it wasn't scientific, its just a rough idea of how many calculations need to be done and how time consuming it will be if those kind of restraints exist.
