Hi,

last week I tested a quad Xeon 3.2 system with different SMP programs, like
Patzer, Crafty and Shredder (not with Amy or Sjeng).

Only Crafty have a good performance on Quad. Shredder is slower on quad if I
compare the results with Crafty. Shredder loosed performance but working fine on
a dual system with hyperthreading. I believe the Shredder programmer optimize
his code for this constellation.

I think for Crafty:
1 CPU to 2 CPU = 25-35 (more 25 as 35) ELO more
1 CPU to 4 CPU = 40-45 (more 40 as 45) ELO more

Only my opinion!
But you asked for Opteron Quad (never have such a system in my hands).

Best
Frank
