Hi George
We get a lot of games very quickly because chessfriend
Rolf Bühler is testing on four (4) identical Athlons 1.3
at 90m+30s but please bear in mind that such an Athlon
correspond with a XP 1700+ and if you are working with
an XP 2600+ you have not a machine twice so fast as
these four Athlons. And my Nunn2 matches (40'/40) are played
on different machines
- P3 650/32 MB hash
- P3 800/64 MB hash
- Duron 1.3/64 MB hash
whereas I usually make analysis on my P4 1./512 MB ram.
As to beta tester: no, I do/did not belong to the beta
tester team. In that case a lot more games would have
been played as those mentioned as a reference on the
homepage of Lokasoft.
Kind regards
