Having just overclocked my P166MMX to 200mhz, :>) I ran a couple of benchmarks using Crafty's built-in bench command, to confirm an increase in speed of around 18%. :>)) what I didnt expect was the large speed difference between the 2 versions (17.5 and 17.8), so I checked another 3 versions and got the following results:- Version Total Nodes Nodes per Second Time (seconds) 16.6 74,921,651 63,118 1187 17.5 87,931,266 79,720 1103 17.6 70,362,201 60,138 1170 17.7 72,591,308 61,413 1182 17.8 72,591,308 61,206 1186 interesting, it appears that the last 3 versions share the same results, but 17.5 is 30% quicker, cancelling out the larger number of total nodes searched and returning with the best time. Im sure this will have been discussed before on the forum, but i'm kinda new here and I am just interested if the latest version is the finest, or are there some real gems hiding in proff. Hyatt's ftp. All benches were run using identical settings and 16Mb 0f HASH :>) Tony.......
