to load my core duo machine, instead of using yes, or pi or whatever, i just make 2 copies of the chess program and have both games play computer vs. computer on "strongest"... guaranteed 100% load on both CPUs.

    Are you sure? Is the player who is waiting for the other to make its turn doing computations nonetheless, or is just idling? You may just create a situation where the CPUs toggle their high activity back and forth.

      when its computer v computer, the thing is playing against itself so its thinking all the time.
