That is incredibly fast!  I timed it with Tiger 14.0 on an Athlon Thunderbird
running at 1400 MHz and it took 11 seconds at a depth of 10 ply.  Since the
Athlon is around 800 times faster than a Palm running at 32 MHz in terms of NPS,
Chess Tiger 14.9 for the Palm would take well over two hours to see Bxh7!
