Go up one level in this thread


Hi

The next thing would be to see the position (at ply 3) that the comps are
crunching on at the moment :-) (but pls no movement for each calculated pos :-)
)

Because you have the KNPS now you can either ask if someone is entering
information about the processor/speed/hash (or identify these three values by
the client) and you would have a nice database about relativ processor-speeds
itself.

With a database big enough you could see when the pocessors reach the point
where it is sensless to add more hash!

...

Bye Ingo
