Kim, If you have a slow processor then you would want a very small program. A large program would be as slow as molasses in January. You can forget about things like endgame tablebases and encyclopedias of chess and putting in lots of chess knowledge. That is why faster is better. However, if you want to beat the program then a big program on a slow computer is the way to go...if it even runs.
