ok. let´s say that´s my data out of thousands of games.

nothing is wrong. i only wanted to say that with 3h/game on p100 you will get
another result as on 3h/game on p1000 because some programs gaines more strength
than others.

the ssdf list is not very useful for that. many programs are not tested on all
platforms. for example nimzo, tiger, chessmaster, rebel and so on. much more
helpful for that is the chessbits rating list, i think. there are all programs
on 5m/g 30m/g and 3h/g.
however, also in the ssdf list you see that hiarcs gets disadvantage, nimzo
advantage of faster cpus. on p200 n99 is clearly behind hiarcs while on k6-450
nimzo is in front. the same is on the chessbits list with n7.32.



>40/40 is 2h/game, close enough to your 3h/game. Nimzo is strong, but not very

really? i think 40/40 is one minute per move! 3h/game is about 2.5 minutes/move.

>top, I think after what I have seen. The SSDF plays 40:2 and Nimzo is not on
>top. Unless by "very top" you mean one of the group on top.

sorry i meant the group on top (first 3 or 4 progs).
