It will serve as a change of pace. It utilizes the same opening books and the same Nalimov tablebases. You really can't tell the difference when you are playing Crafty. It will beat you as easily as do the other programs. In short, Crafty 17.10 is in the same league as Fritz 6a and the other top programs. None of them are really grandmasters. Tim Frohlick
