Go up one level in this thread


it is safe to say that Crafty has at least 1.75x speedup and it may be close to
1.85x based on some quick but unscientific tests I just performed.  It does
better than I expected.  I was expecting 1.75x, but it appears to be closer to
1.85x.

Post any 10 positions you want , and I will run some tests.

This is my 4th dual and you can't beat a dual for price performance if running a
an SMP aware engine.  The second Opteron processor was only $300.  Crafty went
from 2M to 4M nps.  $150/Mnps - you can't beat that.
