Hi,
me again.

My Amiga finished compiling the full book, but the results differs
from that on i386:

- == i386
+ == m68k
  == both

-Time = 29697
+Time = 309087
 Games compiled: 166835
-Games per second: 5.617908
+Games per second: 0.539767
-Positions scanned: 1889771
+Positions scanned: 1889753
 New & unique added: 774986 positions
-Duplicates not added: 1114785 positions
+Duplicates not added: 1114767 positions


As you can see the same number of games are compiled in and the same
number of positions are added. But on m68k is scanns less positions.

Why would it give up earlier in a few cases?

The resulting book files are near identical (after endianness
conversion) except for a few places, looks like just about 18 changes.


Anyone any ideas about this behaviour?
