Depends on the hardware you run it on. I know Bob Hyatt relates
many cases where he runs tests between Crafty and GNU and GNU is
crushed. The only game I have between the two is on a 25mhz 486
with thinking on opponent's time turned off and at 60/5 time control
and GNU crushed Crafty 14.3.

One game is meaningless of course and Hyatt's results are more current
and copious.

I recall Stanback saying his code had been designed on pretty slow
machines
and optimized for fast time controls.
