I think it is possible to force CM6000 to stop using the CPU when it is idle. As
far as I remember, Didzis told me he opens the "level" or "player" properties
dialog, and then switch to the other program. By doing so, the opponent of
CM6000 can get almost 100% of the CPU when it is its turn.

Probably Didzis could tell us more, and then Jorge could restart the match, if
he is willing to.

But my opinion is that pondering MUST be turned OFF for both programs.
