Hmm, I think something is wrong with your setup... single cpu Thunderbird at
1610MHz here are my Crafty benchmark results:

Default Crafty 18.10 (no crafty.rc)
Total nodes: 101850052
Raw nodes per second: 943056
Total elapsed time: 108
SMP time-to-ply measurement: 5.925926

AMD Optimized Crafty 18.10 (no crafty.rc)
Total nodes: 101850052
Raw nodes per second: 970000
Total elapsed time: 105
SMP time-to-ply measurement: 6.095238

CraftyK7.exe (970kNps) is the one I compiled with MSVC6, if you would like to
try it (I think I disabled SMP operations with it, if so I'll try and find the
flags I used before and recompile it for SMP) grab it at...
