Subject: Tablebase ELO gain ?

Hello,
I am again trying to get a feel for the improvement tablebases add to a program.
 Unfortunately Fritz will not run without tablebase available.  Perhaps they
took some endgame knowledge out and depend entirely on the tablebases for
performance??  I am running Hiarcs 7.32 vs Chess Tiger 12.0e and Hiarcs is being
tested with and then without the tablebases available.  I would like to know if
anyone else has done similiar test and what were the results?  I did this over a
year ago with Crafty vs Crafty without tablebases but did not have many
tablebases at the time.  I now have about 4 Gigabytes of tablebases (Compressed)
for the experiment.
