Subject: Junior 5 32 Bit Interface

Can someone please explain to me why junior 5 uses so much more of my system
resources than Fritz 5?  On a 400 Pentium with 128 MB of RAM and Windows 98, I
find myself sometimes down to as low as 45% system resources left compared to
around 70% when I'm using Fritz 5.  Usually there is always one other
application running as well.  Shouldn't junior be able to utilize system
resources more efficiently than Fritz?

Secondly, do you get a stronger game if you combine 2 engines like Fritz and
Hiarcs; one for tactics and the other for positional play or is it better to
stick with one engine when running matches between different chess software?

Thank you,
Freddie.
