Subject: positions to search deep for hours at 500 cpu's

Hello,

I'm looking for positions to search very deep with a cpu or 500 which are
interesting to search deep. Seemingly a whole machine must get reserved for DIEP
world champs 2003. The NWO/NCF perhaps needs to pay for the cpu hours also
during the night says SARA (there is 7 organisations involved and i have written
at least 1 page for each processor to get it so i won't even start quoting all
the organisations involved).

Most jobs run like 2 weeks or so at say for example 32 processors, so all those
jobs cannot get started trivially in the night.

Anyway more negotiations will be there, because the world champs like this will
cost 80000 cpu hours.

This is all internal talks. In case any of such scenario happens or even between
rounds when diep finishes sooner its games, there sometimes is a few hours left
to run diep at 500 cpu's at for example 1 position each run.

that's 250Ghz with around 200GB hashtables in total.

So this allows some massive deep calculations. I'm looking for cool positions to
try.

Please don't mention the openings position, i'm already using that now and it
isn't very interesting at all to search that one deep.

feel free to email to me about this: diep@xs4all.nl

Best regards,
Vincent
