It would probably be possible to get another factor of 10 without much pain; the implementation is very inefficient at the moment. (Remember it's intended to give a fairly level game to a 5-year-old.) If I count all nodes encountered in the qsearch, the level is more consistent; usually 80-100NPS. I realise that I did the program a disservice when I described its features. It does a few simple search extensions too. -- g
