Lets put emphasis where due.

From the help file

"Recovering long and complex RAR passwords may take a long time due to the structure of the RAR files.

Breaking AES 256 with a 12 character password even the simple one you have with only numbers and letters could take freaking YEARS!!!

Now I have not timed this tool -- but lets take these numbers, since they say its one of the fastest out there.

http://www.golubev.com/files/igrargpu/readme.htm

Plain numbers (for RAR passwords with length == 4) are:

~168 passwords per second on single core of Q6600 @ 2.4Ghz (crark's result)

~325 passwords per second on 8600 GT

~3350 passwords per second on ATI HD4850

~2075 passwords per second on GTX260/192SP

Look at those numbers.. Now lets do calc on your 12 digit with numbers and letters only -- and just for fun lets say you could check 1,000,000 a second ;)

Brute Force Attack will take up to 103725141 years

Now sure you could get lucky and find it the first 10 minutes -- but I highly doubt it ;)

With such a password -- I find it highly unlikely to do a brute force on that.
