Crafty is a very GOOD example of how programs behave. Exceptions are old 16 bits programs like Schach, Kallisto and such. Those aren't used. All other programs are 32 bits optimized. Fritz is not a standard program of course, it is completely written in assembly and gets optimized for P4 soon i guess. Which means it will run still horrible on the P4 but less horrible than others. >aloha > martin
