Hi Christophe,
I have found the following LCT-II test results on the internet.
PIII-450 PIII-550
Chess Tiger 12.0 2655
Hiarcs 7.32 2655
Nimzo 7.32 2565
Junior 5.0 2565 2560
Fritz 5.32 2525
Crafty 17.04 2530
I,ve done of my own LCT-II testing on my K6-2 475 and my results correlate well
with the above results for Hiarcs,Nimzo,Junior and Fritz. I also have a P-90 and
my results were in line with the SSDF list. There does seem to be a divergance
between LCTII and SSDF list for sum programs on new machines.
The big surprise is Fritz well over 100 PTs different from SSDF.
The problem I see with test sets is that they are not benchmarked to humans(at
least I haven't seen any) and that each problem is weighted the same. Of course
there also is usually not enough problems too. Having said that my favorite is
the LCT-II and I am hoping a LCTIII comes out.
