Chess Tiger 15.2.Speed index.

Post by Cubeman »

I have just downloaded ChessTiger 15.2 and am running it on my iPAQ hx4700 PPC using StyleTap palm emulator.Just using the demo mode at this stage.There is an option to get a speed index which I think is quite handy as it tells you how fast your hardware is.As I am curious to see if running Palm programs on a PPC with styetap is as fast as the native Palm devices.The fastest Palm device I know of is the Tungsten T5 or the LifeDrive which have a 416mHz processor.
Anyway on my hx4700 624mHz VGA PPC I get a TigerMark index=3.79.From the new game position.
If anyone else has a Palm unit or PPC please let me know what speed index you get and with what hardware.

This is a very good TigerMark index.

You can find a list of TigerMark indexes for various PalmOS devices at the Chess Tiger for Palm website: http://www.chesstiger.com (the list is at the end of the FAQ). Michael Byrne has posted a copy of this list in answer to your message.

Please note that the TigerMark index does not depend on the current board position. It is completely independant of the position currently displayed by Chess Tiger and of ANY engine setting, so it is reliable to compare TigerMark indexes even if you do not know how Chess Tiger was configured when the index has been computed.

Thanks for the reply.I decided to test my iPAQ 2790 624mHz PPC to see an improvement and was happy to get a TigerMark index of 4.60.And 4.67 with Styletap set to 66% resolution.This is without any overclocking.So it seems to me that the best PPC is better than the best Palm for running Palm programs.As the VGA screen of the hx4700 must slow it down since they have the same processor.
I see that the versions that were tested before were 15.0 and 15.1, do these new speed index's relate to 15.2?

Yes the speed indexes apply to version 15.2 as well.
