Some comparison between Diep and X3D Fritz just in speed, since Diep will need
at least the computer power of Deeper Blue to play as strong as X3D Fritz , Deep
Junior or Shredder :-)

3.4 million nodes per second in the starting position, with an 18-ply search
depth in less than four minutes! Experts will recognise that this is quite
extraordinary. Frans Morsch and Mathias Feist, the authors of the program, tell
us that Fritz has never before run on such a fast machine.
