Your results still look very close to me . Some results show Yace ahead others show Crafty.But the difference is never more than 10%. Your results seems to be the same.. >Maybe the fact >that I am using the K7 optimised version of Crafty on an AMD Athlon makes a >difference. Perhaps it needs more games.
