Hey Jon,
To choice the legion ranks of people who cut-and-paste program output :-)
The latest version of Djinn like it fairly quickly (on the AMD FX-51).
Note, the time show for each iteration is the time for that ply *not*
the cumlative time (still the total time here is less than 20 seconds).
BTW, I still use Arasan 6.3 as one of my benchmark programs when
trying to measure progress on the engine.
