A word of warning -- neither Skaki nor Tristram will run with ponder off.  So
they _must_ be run on separate machines or on machines with 2 CPU's or they

Since your time control is quite different, we may see very different results.
If others run still more tournaments of this nature, we could have calibration
curves of strength verses time interval.
