There have been several hundreds of analysis posted by many different engines
lately.
That is very nice and we love to see all these results.
But the ONE thing that make them hard to compare is that 90% of the posters love
to mention their name, the *town* they are living in, the amount of hash table
they are using BUT DO NOT EVEN CARE TO MENTION THE PROCESSOR THEY ARE USING and
its clock frequency in MHz!!!
There are huge differences among the machines people are using, and I have seen
results computed on K6-2 450 and some other computed on Athlon 3000+ (one post
recently even referred to an analysis on Pentium 120MHz).
Please remember that you are probably not all using the same kind of computer
and that there are huge differences in computing speed between these computers.
PLEASE do not forget to mention the processor and clock speed in your analysis.
If you don't, your results are losing a lot of their value.
Thank you for your attention on this matter!
