Since Bob has all 5 piece table bases I assume that Crafty answered instantly.
Without any table base Chest solves the mate in 18 in 13 minutes
(on a K7/600 with 350 MB hash), so it is not completely out of reach.
The TT shines, here: Chest's conservative estimate of speed up due to TT
is here a factor 44.
