I wouldn't have expected such large increases for Crafty and for an Othello program. I wouldn't think they have large evaluation functions to profit from faster on-chip cache. Would it have something to do with better handling of 64 bit numbers? No idea. I don't suppose you happen to have figures for 733 MHz Coppermine too by any chance? I'm still betting that a properly configured 733 MHz Coppermine can beat the Rebel 10 benchmark for the Kryotech AMD K6-3 600 MHz, which I understood is faster than other 600 MHz computers due to its lightning-fast - V8 Holden-like? - off-chip cachememory. It will be close. Anyone willing to take me up on that? Eelco
