What I do is SSH (scp) the capture file for WPA to my home desktop (port forward on your router so you can do this anywhere you have Internet), and let it do its thing. It's a very beefy desktop running Ubuntu, so it at least gets weak passwords (a.k.a. "password" lol) in a reasonable amount of time.

You should try a solution like this, where the capturing is done on your device and the cracking is done on a computer elsewhere. Mobile hardware just doesn't match up with a quad-core Core-i5 w/ 4GB RAM.

WEP captures are easy enough to do all on the device, though. With 30,000+ IV's I think it maybe takes 5 minutes for me, overclocked to 900MHz. Sometimes longer.
