Tiger finds only POS06, quite quickly. This test is more a tactical one than a
positional one.

N 9    9.67s  Rd7 Rec1 f6 Rxc2 Qxc2 Qf1 e5 Rc1 Qa2 Ra1 Qd2                +0.14
N 9   12.47s  e5                                                          +0.15
N 9   15.88s  e5 Rab1 Qd5 Qa4 Rdc8 Ba1 Qa2 Qa6 R8c6 Qxa7 Rxf2             +0.76

So Tiger 11.7.6 finds e5 in 12.47s (K6-2-300, 8Mb hash).


The other positions are rather hard. Don't mind too much if your program does
not find them. You could add as well CMB11 and CMB12 in the list of "positions
too hard to solve, ignore them".
