As far as i could understand from what Hyatt said about DF's lack of speed on a dual comp, it has to do with how fast it solves a position and not the actual kN/s so maby you should try to run a couple of testset's by DF with 1 thread and 2 threads to see if there is any difference in performance (not kN/s). When your Deep Junior is hitting the high nodes, so to speak, using 2 processors then your comp should be fine and DF should be the problem. Have you tried other SMP programs like CraftySMP for comparison? Regards Jonas
