Subject: Bob, could you run this test for me?

I haven't parallelized Zappa yet, but its always in the back of my mind, and one
of the things I've been thinking about is processes v threads.  The advantage of
processes is you can keep your globals, the advantage of threads is shared
tables.

IIRC, Crafty used to use globals for the board, etc up till about 14-15.  Would
you mind running the last version to use globals and the first version to use
the TREE struct on your Opteron?  I'm curious what kind of speed improvement you
get on a machine with (at least a few) more registers than x86.
