This is in general *not* better for engine-engine matches.
It is only better if you have only *one* processor.
Current pc's have one, two or four processors.
If you have 2 or more processors it's much better to play with ponder on.

It was not obvious to deactivate ponder in winboard, as it is allready
deactivated in the .ini file.
