I think 2 minutes per game is a too fast time control to proove anything. And
the hashtable size is too high for blitz games. The program needs some time to
clear the hashtables after every move. Not all programs do this, but cm6k does.

What about playing 50 games at 30min/game ? This will take about 2 days, but the
result is more valuable.

Best regards
Kai
