it has nothing to do with generating at all of course.
if i use my incremental attacktable it will beat it of course.
i just have to write 2 special functions and strip my makemove
and genmove.

Also i can make my functions more specific. instead of a general
code in my program i can make it of course for black and white.

in such ways for such simple tests you can beat anything.

2 million legal moves a second at depth-1 then times about 40
and factor 2 slowdown becuase of pinned piece reduction.

that makes about 40 million nps a second for perft.

Movei is at about 20MLN a second.
