This was the case at 1/0 at 3/0, 5/0, 10/0 seems it scores less. Though also scoring better at 25/0. >I think the playing >condisions are the same except that the both programs have ponder=on in the >later series of matches. True but there is no way to tell if the cpu is being utilized equally by both Fritz and Crafty. Only way I think is two computers, I'll do it manually if I have to, though not too keen on the 1/0 or 2/0 LOL. > I am sorry if i missed something and posted something >wrong ;). >I know its just too small number of games to come to any conclusion. but does it >answer (to some extend) your question regarding "why does ponder=off effects >crafty?" No, I still believe other programs are equally hurt by ponder=off but maybe Crafty has better cpu utilization or something....just a theory. >thanks for some great games >greetings from >pavel :) Welcome Pavel. >ps, my english is not so good sorry about that. It's ok it's much better than my any other language :-) Thanks.
