Hiarcs is notorious to gain from faster hardware more than almost any other program. This used to be the case since Hiarcs 3 at least. To put it another way: There are few programs that benefit as much from ever faster PCs as Hiarcs does. This is something very positive to say about a program which already plays as well on slower hardware like P200MMX ... Moritz
