Last night I played a series of 43 games between AnMon-426 and Crafty-16.10
under winboard.
My settings were:
AnMon ponder=on hash=32Mb
Crafty ponder=on hash=24Mb hachp=4Mb cache=4Mb
Both programs used their own book.
Anmon had no endgame table bases whereas Crafty used the Nalimov table bases,
4 pieces and most 5 pieces.
Time was 10 min per game with an increment of 5 sec per move.
Hardware: 2 processor Pentium Pro 200 MHz
Result: AnMon won 15 games, draw 4 and lost 24. 43 games.
so the score AnMon vs Crafty is 17 - 26.
This result refers to an elo difference of 73,8 points.

Kind regards
Bernhard
