Subject: TSCP nps test (Mac rules so far)

Results, so far, for the TSCP nps test:

Platform      Compiler       nps

Mac G3/300    CW 3.1 opt     40,519
P2/300        msvc opt       38,223
K6-2/400      cygwin opt     37,516
P2/300        gcc opt        29,205
K6-2/400      msvc no opt    28,745
K6-2/400      cygwin no opt  23,885
K5/116        gcc -0         17,200
P6/200        watcom opt     16,018

Can anyone beat the Mac G3?  I'm surprised the K6/400 isn't as fast as the
P2/300 (though different compilers were used).

I would really like to see a few more machines here, as well as get
corroborating results from similar machines.  Please submit results here or by
email.

For those of you willing to participate, here's the method I followed:

Download TSCP v1.3.  ( http://ucsu.colorado.edu/~kerrigat/ )
Modify the procedure Think() in search.c to:
   search 6 ply.
   Calculate and display NPS.
Compile using optimize on.
Run TSCP, and type ON.

Thanks.

Will
