Subject: Many Crafty versions, many compile versions, different bench results??

Go up one level in this thread

The thing I don't like about using Crafty to compare benchmarks is that everyone
uses different versions of Crafty.  In addition, for any particular version,
there's the Eugene Nalimov compile, the Dann Corbit compile, and who knows what
other compiles, all giving different bench results.  It would be hard to compare
my machine vs other people's unless we know we're using the exact same version
and compile.

Perhaps a better choice would be a more established program like Yace 0.99.56
which has been the same version for over 1 year.  But I don't know if it has a
bench command.
