I think you got the computation incorrectly. Thinker is not 32 times faster than
Fruit. In the Thinker output, you can see that it only does something like
700Knps, while in your output, Fruit does around 600Knps.

Thinker does: 4246 29903901, which is 29903901 nodes in 42.46 secs.
Fruit does: 00:01:48 67203kN, which is 67203000 nodes in 108 secs.
