Subject: Performance under Win98 and WinNT

I tried runnig Pedestrian under Win98 and was shocked by how much slower it was
than under NT. Details:

a)  same C++ compiler from Visual Studio 6
b)  same hardware (PII 450)
c)  identical node counts and depths
d)  typical timing from one of the positions:

Win 98          163.0 sec
Win NT 4.01      73.9 sec

Any idea why such a huge difference?
I tried tweaking some optimization options but it didn't help.

(win386.swp is not the answer, by the way)

thanks,
PK.
