It make sense to claim that tiger earn less than other programs from faster cpu (I did not do tests to check that claim) but the poster claimed that it earned nothing from it and it was the thing that seemed illogical and suggest that he has some problem in his hardware. I can expect significant difference after some hundreds of games between every program and itself with clearly faster cpu unless the program has significant bug and I do not know of significant bug of Tiger.
