Opps!

From the exe offered on Hyatt's website.


EPD Kit revision date: 1996.04.21
found computer opening book file [./bookc.bin].

Crafty v18.15 (1 cpus)

White(1): mt 2
max threads set to 2
White(1): bench
Running benchmark. . .
......
Total nodes: 106580575
Raw nodes per second: 1440278
Total elapsed time: 74
SMP time-to-ply measurement: 8.648649
White(1): end
execution complete.


1.73M with a profiled exe using Intel's compiler.

I'd be interested to see what he gets with the FTP exe of 18.15.
