The strong pachi is really strong!  What hardware is it running on?  Can you
say how it differs from the vanilla pachi?

Done.

My old MPI code had a scaling bug.  Performance scaling (playouts per
second) was linear, but the strength did not scale well, and 64 cores was
weaker than 32 cores.  I have a 16 core cluster of my own now (four 2.3 GHz
Q8200 quad core), and I discovered that the MPI code hangs when using MPICH2
rather than the Microsoft MPI library.  So last week I rewrote it with a
different algorithm, and it seems to scale much better.

It's on CGOS now, for at least a few days.  It would be great if some other
strong programs could join, zen, or fuego-8c, or aya-4c, or the strong
version or pachi.

Thanks,

David
