Yace generates about 46 million. I'm pretty sure Yace is one of the faster move generators though, so if you can't match that speed, don't lose any sleep over it ;) But with 0x88 (or similar), you should probably be closer to Yace than Crafty, since the advantage of bitboards (especially on 32-bit hardware) is not move generation. Run Crafty (with the "perft" command) and Yace (with the "speed" command) and tell us what you get on your machine, then we will have an idea of how it compares with your program. I would guess my Athlon 2GHz would be in the same ballpark as your P4 2.8 GHz, but it would be better if we could compare all of the numbers from the same machine (yours).
