Yes, but you would only discover the move e3 after it's made and then you're using time in transistion from Nf3 to e3 or am I missing something? Unless you happened to ponder e3 intensively before switching to Nf3, but since you overwrite old data then... >Also I know the difference between old positions and new positions, and I always >choose to overwrite positions from an old search before I overwrite something >from the current search. Wouldn't squeezing new data in before overwriting old data be better just in case it's usable. Or could that cause problems? Best wishes... Mogens
