So, for blitz chess against Crafty, then:

although transitivity isn't a given.
On another topic, I have another result in the
Crafty 14.5 "a3" test, that is to say:
(book off, ponder off, hash 6M, hashp 2M, sd 9, a3)
84654 nps - Mac G3/300 (cpu 100%)
41608 nps - Mac 7300/180 (604e) (cpu 100%)
Last I checked, the Alphas were doing the best on this test - what's
an Alpha number like these days?
(terminal output for the G3 was:)
