How to make a quad version of your chessprogram in minutes: 1) create 3 dummy threats at program start 2) make dummythreats calculate primes 3) Do nodecount*3 Wich would result in: 4) Play Kramnik and make an 8 processor version. To make sure people don't start asking difficult questions: Say it's a special version not available commercially (You don't want to get a bad name) and make sure that it ALWAYS starts (3+no_of_cpus-requested_cpus) dummy threats. That way people can convince themselves that your chessprogram does play stronger with more cpu's and less strong with less threats on a quad. Tony > >Regards, > >Steve Maughan
