All your other stuff was ok for tongue-in-cheek.  But the above is yet another
example of your propensity to "knock that which you can't possibly beat."

Want to have a NUMA vs NUMA match in a few months?  Or do you just prefer to
yap rather than put up or shut up?

There is a working NUMA crafty for windows machines.  There is a working Crafty
for Linux NUMA machines, although the software/OS support has a few glitches yet
to be solved.  However I ran a NUMA crafty on ICC off and on for a couple of
weeks.  It looked like it was running to me...

You seem to think you are the only one on the planet that understands parallel
search, parallel architectures, and NUMA in particular.  If only you could grasp
how _wrong_ you are...
