Some time ago I saw someone reporting (don't remember if it was here) Rybka doing 30Knps, while crafy 19.x doing 800Knps and Fritz8 doing over a million nps on his pc while beating both crafty and fritz. Over the years computer programmers said that nps was an importante factor in an engine performance, (and I agree, look at Deep Blue and Hydra). In face of Rybka nps, my question is: What the hell is going on? In this department Rybka seams to prove that nps isn't a factor for performance at all. Please state you opinion on this. best regards, Alvaro Cardoso
