I don't see where you see it any faster than they did... I see that Deeper blue score is clearly better than the score of other programs after search. Deeper blue said only 2.1 pawns for white after 73 seconds of search when other programs has no problem to see clearly better score for white. I can explain 1 pawn difference or even 1.5 pawns difference by different evaluation but the difference between Crafty's evaluation(4.22) and their evaluation(2.1 after 73 seconds) is more than 2 pawns(I mean to the evaluation of Rf5+) and it can be explained only by the fact that crafty could see deeper. Their score at depth 15 is only 1.63 for white so if you compare same depth then it is clear that Crafty did better extensions than deeper blue. If you do not like depth 15 of move 43 because of the bug that cause deeper blue to play Rd1 you can take depth 11(6)=17 at move 42 abd you find there a score of only 1.36 pawns for white. I assume that 11(6) means depth 17 with futility pruning and in this case the top programs of today clearly do better extensions than deeper blue. Uri
