For movei(PIII850,64 mbytes hash) depth 14 is enough to see big advantage but
less than +2
and the time is not very good.


depth=14 +1.85 d4c6 c5a4 c3a4 b7c6 b5c6 b8c7 a4b6 c7b6 e3b6 h5g3 f2g3 e8e7 c6c7

I do not know the exact time to see positive score because I did not save the
analysis but it was certainly at least some hours.
