Hi,

this is right but ...

The Axon Bench test is after my information a part from Axon chess engine. Axon
chess engine is working on Athlon processors faster! Gandalf 4.32x versions or
Crafty works after my information not faster on Athlon processors. A good
example is Anaconda too. Anaconda is working on Athlon processors faster.

And this is the reason for me to write (Axon as a part of a chess program which
is faster on Athlon processors) that Athlon processors will have a better result
as Intel processors with Axon bench test. We can start the Crafty bench and
compare the results on Intel or Athlon and the results are completly different.

Not more not less ...

Best
Frank
