Our testing (admittedly, only using the CM GUI) has shown this to not be the case at all. Using some very good tools (TaskInfo2000 is probably the best) we determined that the engines in the game (anywhere between one and three) were sharing about 88-92% of the CPU. 5-8% went to the CM GUI, and the rest went to Windows. It didn't matter what those engines were (The King, Crafty, Yace, etc.), they all were getting "equal" portions of the CPU. But, once again, this was using the CM GUI, and the results may be completely different using Millenium. My suggestion is to download TaskInfo2000 and check it out for yourself. I would be very interested in seeing the results. Just make sure that you wait for several minutes for the percentages to even out. jm
