Yes, to attack multiple files you'd have to do multiple computations.

However, if you can try all dictionary words in 0.5 seconds, you can try that against 172800 files in a day.

Of course you'd need a security breach that gave you access to multiple files too!

Like a breach on Dropbox, a company that 1Password has no control over?
