Idea: Try a parallel perft() It's fairly simple to write a parallel perft() which splits only at the root and where the threads have minimal interaction and where the results are known beforehand and the order of calculation is irrelevant. This should produce a near linear speed-up; if not, at least...

But otherwise they won't help much with move selection, so if they're included in a program, then they should be conditionally compiled so as to not slow the program during regular play. ---- For those wanting to ...
