Subject: Windows Timings

I have added some new features to my program that make it serch on average more
nodes that the previous version, but the NPS is much higher, so it is an overall
speed gain...... I think. Unfortunately windows gives me such wildly different
timings each time I run my program (some instances, the same program will give
me a 20% different timing for the same task), so I need much more timing
stability.

I thought about porting my program to DOS and running it there, but that would
be a lot of work, and I was hoping for something faster. Is there any way to
FORCE Windows to spend almost exactly the same amount of CPU time on my program
every time it is run?

Thanks,
James
