I am running xboard on Mac OS X. My tests show that engines running in xboard take a huge hit in nps compared to being used in text mode. DSjeng : 44knps in xboard 135knps in text mode Amy : 112knps in xboard 400knps in text mode Crafty : 116knps in xboard (more nps than amy?) 179knps in text mode using bench Beowulf : 12knps (something has gone wrong here) 20knps (not reporting correctly?) It does not appear that xboard is using much in the way of resources according to process viewer so I don't know why there would be such a big hit to nps speed. I assume this is not normal and not an issue on most other platforms. Has anyone else had similar results? Ryan
