I disagree totally - imo -- it is the best ever. Last night I was optimizing Chest for Franz - the exectuable that was slowest on my machine was the fastest on his machine. I will re-release Crafty 19.10 SE with the compilation options that work best for him. When I say slowwest, I mean it was 25% slower. Ithink i have such odd processor with non standard ram , my machine is not good for optimizng for the general public. I have a P4 Xeon 1.7 that is running with PC 600(?) - it really should have PC 800 -- I didn;t realzie it until after got my machine. Also , I think opening book can also have a big influence - some programs do better with certain books than other. You do need hundreds of games - especially when the spread is only 36 points. Even then it may fall back to YMMV. Initially I tested it vs Hiarcs 9 and it got killed. That's why the >low rating. Last night I tested it vs Junior 8 since it's rating is almost >equal to Hiarcs 9. Crafty did much better and raised it's rating about 60 Elo >after only 52 games. It is still 36 Elo below Crafty 19.7mmx after 176 games so >still may rise. >Jim
