Tim Mann's 600MHz Alpha 21264 runs Crafty about as fast as Bob's 4x550 >Xeon machine. Crafty absolutely screams on the 21264. Sure, but with Nalimov's builds, the difference is not nearly so dramatic. Dr. Hyatt uses GCC for Pentium, which is a good 30%-40% slower than what Eugene can build. Also, Tim Mann's version has a huge loss with multple CPU's for some reason (IIRC). Also, the proposed CPU speed was roughly doubled for the Xeon chips. I think it would be a push, but I doubt if any 4x1000 Xeons exist yet. It would be a fun experiment to try.
