[D] 8/4ppbk/p5pp/3pP3/3B4/5P1P/PP3P2/6K1 b - - 0 1 My thing got smashed by Ulf Andersson in this position. It wants to play ... g5 and sticks with it for a long time on a P3/550, like something over a minute, and it didn't have near enough time to avoid getting creamed. I'm pretty sure that ... g5 is dead lost. I'm less sure about ... h5 or ... e6. A recent Yace switches away in about 12 seconds on one processor of my quad Xeon 450, and Crafty 18.10 takes 22 seconds to shift away. I'm surprised about Crafty since I'd thought that it should do better given its knowledge of majorities. Anyone have any other insights? If you would like to tell how fast another program shifts away from ... g5, please include hardware. bruce
