From doc/FAQ:
"The four speed metrics are as follows: g/s is successful guesses per
second (so
it'll stay at 0 until at least one password is cracked), p/s is
candidate passwords tested per second, c/s is "crypts" (password hash or
cipher computations) per second, and C/s is combinations of candidate
password and target hash per second."

I think that is ambiguous as written. It could mean c/s or C/s.
I think what *Hashcat reports nowadays is equivalent to JtR's p/s. That
figure will decrease with number of salts, so eg. with 10 salts the p/s
will be a tenth of c/s. With just one salt (or unsalted hashes) p/s and
c/s are always the same like in your example.
Please note that for good OpenCL speeds you should run a newer version
of Jumbo than the latest released (eg. a bleeding-jumbo snapshot from
https://github.com/magnumripper/JohnTheRipper/archive/bleeding-jumbo.tar.gz)
and to compete with *Hashcat at "fast hashes" you should use mask mode
(alone or as an accelerator for some other mode).
Regarding OSX there seems to be quite some regression in driver quality
from Yosemite to El Capitan. Some formats now crash or fail self-test,
whereas the Yosemite drivers (and late Mavericks iirc) was 100% working
for me. I hope Apple will fix that soon.
