Go up one level in this thread

40 mln nodes /sec. is for the old Hydra-Chimera.

The new Hydra-Scylla is much faster. I saw it run at 130 mln nodes/sec. on
several occasions. So the speed of Hydra is roughly comparable with the speed of
Deeper Blue.

The search of Hydra is much more advanced. The software part of Deep Blue was
probably nothing more than a souped up version of GNU-Chess.
