I believe I have accidentally discovered the answer to your question!

I just ran FritzMark on my computer, using Fritz 8 as the engine.

The answer given was:

FritzMark(Hash = 256MB)
Nodes 430 kN/s
FritzMark = 559

This suggests that the FritzMark would depend on the size of the hash table you
have set for your engine.  I use 256MB hash [for analysis].

Incidentally, I have been unable to discover the exact processor in my computer,
but have not yet removed the cover to look inside.  Hopefully, the information
will be printed on the processor.

Here is the information given by my Computer Properties sheets:

Microsoft Windows 98 2nd Edition 4.10.2222 A
Compaq
AuthenticAMD
AMD Athlon(tm) Processor @ 1GHz
511.0 MB RAM

It is becoming clear that giving FritzMark alone is meaningless unless the hash
table size is given too.
