-B
different hashes use different sized inputs
like --whirlpool & --snefru128/256 use 64 MB inputs

& --sha512 uses 256 MB inputs?

vs. 512 MB for most others

(are they limited in that respect ?)

The input size is hardcoded for each algorithm. It has been chosen depending on algorithm speed, to make the benchmark time almost the same for them.
