Because speed isn't everything. Diep was playing on a 500 processor machine at
the WCCC. It was reported here that Diep was running at about 75 times its
single cpu speed on the 500 processor machine. The quad Opteron only runs Diep
at 3 times the single cpu speed. If a 75x speedup couldn't put Diep over the
top, what is a 3x boost?
