For comparison, certain other solutions available on GitHub seem to require 3 hours to find all 3-word anagrams (i.e. this solution is faster by a factor of 4000 in 3-word case).

Multi-threaded performance with RyuJIT (.NET 4.6, 64-bit system) is as follows:
* If only phrases of at most 4 words are allowed, then it takes less than 10 seconds to find and check all anagrams; all hashes are solved in first 1 second.
* If only phrases of at most 4 words are allowed, then it takes less than 10 seconds to find and check all 7433016 anagrams; all hashes are solved in first 1 second.
* If phrases of 5 words are allowed as well, then it takes around 18 minutes to find and check all anagrams; all hashes are solved in first 25 seconds. Most of time is spent on MD5 computations for correct anagrams, so there is not a lot to optimize further.
* If phrases of 6 words are allowed as well, then "more difficult" hash is solved in 50 seconds, "easiest" in 3.5 minutes, and "hard" in 6 minutes.
* If phrases of 7 words are allowed as well, then "more difficult" hash is solved in 6 minutes.
Note that all measurements were done on a Release build; Debug build is significantly slower.
