Clock for clock, an i7 will typically be a bit slower (maybe 10%) than a Core 2 for single-threaded playouts. This is what I see with my own program and with libego. There isn't much difference between the two cores, but the i7 takes 4 cycles to read from level 1 data cache while the core 2 takes 3, and this slows down anything that looks like linked-list traversal through L1 cache (for example, capturing large groups). -M- _______________________________________________ Computer-go mailing list [email protected] http://dvandva.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/computer-go
