It seems I got PVS working. In comparison to simple alphabeta I get mixed results. I have seen positions where PVS does 20% less nodes than ab (starting position). However I have also seen (tactical) positions where PVS does do more nodes than ab. I am trying to find out how that's possible, but didn't have enough time. The impression is that pvs is just more sensitive to good moveordering than ab. I see that iterative deepening in Crafty. How important is it? Regards, Bas Hamstra.
