>How many nodes(legal moves) does your program search per second?

Not even 20K NPS on a P/166, so CHEST is not a fast searcher.
But at the same time it can do 1500 "mate in 2" per second.

>I remember that you developed a good mate searcher.
>Did you develop a chess program for playing or only for finding mate?

Only for proving shortest mates (which is not the same as searching mates
of arbitrary depth).

No, the answer is not yet there.  CHEST will be available in some weeks.
I am currently working on the first public release.

Unfortunately, my web page seems to be not reachable from outside since
yesterday, for no apparent reason.  I´ll try to investigate that.
