So who removed a factor of "2"? Not me. Aren't you the one dispensing disinformation? "Crafty won't search 2x faster in nps, it is hell slower using SMP mode." Correct. It only searches 1.9-1.95X faster depending on the hardware. "Crafty can't search the DTS positions 1.7 x faster, only 1.4 at best." Seems to be false based on results I have posted (multiple log files in fact) as well as results sent by others. "Bob bases his 1.7 speedup on 1 position where we use a suite of positions." More poppycock as I have _always_ used test suites and not positions, unless we are talking about a specific position at the time. And you say _I_ am guilty of misstatements? GCP and I sent you two logs from Crafty on the DTS positions, using 4 processors. His speedup on a quad 550 was 2.8. Mine on a quad 700 with 1mb L2 cache was 3.0. You _only_ quoted the 2.8 time after time. Honesty? You? Not in the same breath... > >>> >>>Best regards, >>>Vincent
