Must be the Nehalem. I didn't think Safari was so fast

That's pretty impressive. What does Chrome get on your hardware, I want to see if it's just the hardware or Safari has super powers.

I've updated it so it's a bit stronger (no more consecutive null-moves). Also, it now records a PGN for you, if you want to save it for posterity

Can you make it winboard or uci compatible so we can have more fun with it.

Hi Gary,
How's Garbochess holding up? Is it still being developed?

I'm afraid that would be a bit tricky. You would need a native javascript execution environment, which sort of defeats the purpose of a web app. I could make it output the UCI commands as text, and you could paste them into the GUI, but that's not so great

I lost the source to 2.20 in a hard drive crash, so not that version. I have a complete rewrite which is stronger, but I don't see much point in releasing it.

Sadly, Chrome under Linux (Ubuntu 9.10) seems slower:
Ply:9 Score:-60 Nodes:91857 NPS:89008.72093023255 e5 d4 exd4 Qxd4 Nc6 Qd2 Nf6 Nc3
I could only find Chrome 5 beta for Linux, but maybe the stable version will beat Safari when in comes out...... Opera is MUCH slower under Linux and Firefox is about comparable.
