That is at 40/2 time or about 3min/move. Each doubling of speed adds 75 points, so if you want to get to 3000, double the time/move twice wich will get you 150pts. 3 doubled once is 6 and doubled twice is 12min/move. This will be the same analysis as two doublings of HW speed at 3min/move. Freeware programs are about 100 to 150 behind the commercials, so you will have to double 12 twice, which is a lot of time.
