tools like #Veracrypt just do not say you entered wrong password. It's because it is used to derive a sequence of keys and all of them are tied before one key somewhere far in the chain actually works. Thus the bruteforcer has to decide for himself when to stop each attempt. Which key number in the sequence will be used is selected at password setting time. It takes ~5 seconds to derive a proper key from a correct password on modern CPU.

Way to go with passwords.
