Meanwhile, Bertil pointed out that this could have to do with the MMX support of
the CPU.

Do some of the experts here know, if the K6 has MMX support (and if, is it
slower than that of the Intel CPUs)? This could be the reason, or one of them,
for these big differences in the match results.

Did other chess progammers utilize MMX code for their engines yet? I assume it
has to do with that SIMD instructions (?).
