Incidentally, a presentation at the NIST crypto reading group recently pointed out some of the weaknesses of current password KDFs: Argon2i has a viable attack, bcrypt truncates input, PBKDF2 needs an utterly insane number of rounds, and scrypt and argon2d/argon2id have data-dependent computation time and seem to be vulnerable to side-channel attacks. It turns out this is a really hard problem.
