Hi GCP, it is not a secret that a program running on 8 CPU is not 8 times faster than a program running on one cpu, even if the amount of nodes/s seems to look like that. But that does not mean, that - assuming a good parallelisation algorihm - every processor is adding speed. On hydra we know that the last two plys including q-search and eval is done by hardware very fast. Thus even if there is only one CPU running it will at least searching severals plys deeper without any parallelisation drawback than an equivalent software program. So I don´t know what bullshit you are talking about. Greetings Volker
