Subject: Bitboard performance

I noticed in the previous thread about bitboard vs. integer array performance
that both approaches were considered equally efficient on non-64 bit-based
processors.

Even so, I thought bitboards provided a significant speed improvement over int
arrays in both move-generation and position evaluations, i.e. quickly checking
for forks.

Any thoughts from the bitboard camp?
