Munjong, I'm not sure about the speed-up you'll see. It's biggest impact is for application that are intensively allocating and freeing memory - which is not chess programs. However, it may allow somewhat faster hash access. It's free and you can find it at: http://sourceforge.net/projects/fastmm/ To add it to the project is simple - add the FastMMM4 directory to the path and add 'FastMM4' to the uses clause in the program source. It also detects memory leaks - probably not a problem for chess apps but a huge benefit for regular apps. As for Delphi 2005 and 2006 - I would have expected that you should see a speed increase with D2005 due to the inlining of functions. This will be more aggressive in D2006 so maybe you'll see a 5% speed increase with the new version. Do let me know how you get on! Regards, Steve
