There is no problem with crafty.
It's a problem with the counters.

The biggest number a long can hold is about 2 billion.

That overflows very easily.

If you let crafty run for more than a few minutes, the NPS figures have no
meaning.  You used to be able to get negative values, but I think at least that
has been fixed.
