There is no statement that DIEP used stronger hardware than Zappa. The official website says: Zappa 2xAMD dual-core Opteron, 2200 MHz Diep Quad Opteron 2400 MHz As a first very crude step in the comparison: 2 x 2 x 2200 Mcycles = 8800 Mcycles is faster then 4 x 2400 Mcycles = 9600 Mcycles. furthermore: If from http://www.amd.com/us-en/Processors/ProductInformation/0,,30_118_8796_8800~97051,00.html we may conclude that a dual AMD Opteron processor gives about 86% additional power in comparison with single processors at the same speed, Diep has an even bigger advantage. Still, a thourough analysis using chess programs as benchmark on the actual machines is required to prove your statement. Evidently the tournament organisation does not have access to these machines, so it is beyond their(our) scope. Can anyone present real measurements? Theo
