Q: Why? A: to get an idea which programs are best suitable for interactive Analysis. Demand: solution time <1 min even for "tough" positions. Q: Why? A: Obviously you dont want to spend more than a minute on a single position if you want to analyse your games in reasonable time. AMD,1.8 GHz,512MB (ordinary Hardware) 64MB hash,CB-GUI LCT II(few tough positions), 60 secs, 1 extra ply: program pos. solved time(solved av./all av.) 1. Hiarcs 9 30/35 2.52s/10.73s !! 2.

Fritz 7.008 279/300 0.44s/0.48s (for comparison: Comet B60 269/300, GLC 3.0 277/300, Crafty 19.03 277/300, Yace Paderborn 280/300, Little Goliath 3.9 281/300, Knight Dreamer 3 282/300) I cant test Junior,Chesstiger,Rebel or Deep Sjeng in CB-GUI at present. In WM-Test King attack they should perform clearly worse than Chessmaster,Shredder or Fritz. Michael
