I would bet that even with 1000% increase in speed there is no way junior5 would
get anywhere close to a 200 rating point jump in strength. If this was the case,
why improve chess programs at all. Just wait a few years till we have micro
computers that runs 2000% faster and play Kasparov for the title.
