As I suggested in a previous post : now, the chess engines could access to
32-way opteron machine (64-way next year) :))

The new chipset "Horus" is CcNUMA, so it maintain the cache-coherency ... very
cool :)

I hope the University of Alabama will get one soon and let's see Crafty run at
60 Millions node/sec  :))
