Yeah, your right the hash tables really come into play in the end games. When I
run Hiarcs 7 with full access 64 MG hash tables, the speed is a lot slower in
the middle game compared to the end game. Towards the end game, you can really
see the added benefit as the next iteration is at ply 8 NOW!!!!
