There's not enough empirical data to make such an estimation. The programmer
believes that Yace benefits a lot from tablebases. Since he's aware of the
endgame knowledge incorporated in Yace, that might well be true. The safest bet
IMHO would be the consensus estimation of the ELO improvement with tablebases,
whatever that may be.

Best wishes...
