Looks stronger to me so far:
ftp://cap.connx.com/pub/chess-engines/n ... eowulf.exe
Tell me what you think.
All this talk about IID prompted me to look at Beowulf's. Redundant work was being performed.

I think this beowulf.exe is 1.21 mb, 4 time larger than normal.

New compiler gives massive bloat. One binary I compiled was 4MB and GCC gave 380K.

UPX exe packer get's it down to 335kb. You have to use the -f (force) command.
