  Thanks for the figures, Jim. Your K6-2 350 must really scream
when analyzing :-) On my P100, on average the pos/sec I get when
examining a position is around 30,000...

  You state that your system has 512K of L2 cache. Do you think
Rebel would perform better with 1024K in the same task?

                               Kind regards,
                                               Francois Bertin
