I've compiled the latest gnuchess (pl71) on an Alpha AXP 3000/600, and it seems quite fast. It is definitely searching a lot more nodes per second than the DECstation 5000/240 (MIPS R3000 machine) that I used to run it on. I did need to fix a couple of bugs to get it to run on the Alpha. The patches are given in the gnu.chess FAQ (which I will be reposting in a few minutes). How did you determine that the PC was running gnuchess faster? How did you measure it? --Tim
