Hard to say.  Someone had quoted Frans, after he was asked about how efficient
his parallel search was, as "not as good as Crafty".  Taking that at face
value, I assume that a Siemens machine has 8 cpus?  If so that is 2x faster
than 4, but I would really expect about 1.5x speedup overall to be conservative.

1.5x is not huge.
