Well, I did come to the conclusion that this probably was the case. The
engine load feature says that Hiarcs has the hash table, as does the
Process test set command, so it must be as you say. I just wish I could
see the hash table use with the older engines. Hiarcs locks up on Mate
Problems, and although it finds the mate, it locks up while finishing
the ply, as the process test set makes it do. Maybe an upgrade to all
engines is due.

Thanks for the reply,
