I don't know about you, but I think a factor 2 is _big_. I do too... but what does a move generator do? Some update incremental stuff (we did in Cray Blitz). Some don't. So they have to compute that stuff somewhere else. I don't see how to "prove" this without re-writing my program without bitmaps, which I am not willing to do. Otherwise, comparing two programs is not apples to apples, ever... > >>>Doesn't say a thing.
