No engine can solve a problem in 0 seconds
I guess that one solve it in 0.2 second and another solve it in 0.4 seconds
and it is still easy to compare 0.2 and 0.4.

If the interface does not give you times like that then the problem is the
interface and not the computers.

When I run movei in console mode I get the exact time per solution in units of
0.01 second.
