Subject: More Hash is Big Help for Hiarcs! ( Hiarcs 37.5 to 26.5 for Fritz6 Old )

 Using an AMD K6-2, 266Mhz, Hiarcs7.32 = 32mb hash, Fritz6 Old = 4mb hash

An interesting note: In my last match of 306 games there was 12 games that were
overstepped by Fritz6 old, thats 3.92%. I was told that the 16mb hash i gave
Fritz6 old was too much for a 5 min./game and this was the reason for Fritz's
loses on time, but now i'am starting to wonder how true this might be! I reduced
the hash size for Fritz from 16mb down to 4mb for this Match, and so far Fritz
lost 9 games due to over-stepping the time, thats 6.52% out of 138 games played
so far! When we reach the total of 306 games as in my last Match, this will be
most interesting to see the result! I know why Hiarcs7.32 is doing much better
as the increase in hash size to 32mb from 16mb in the last Match.

I checked the 9 games that Fritz lost on time and 8 out of 9 games were
definitly draws, but time means everything in blitz and there can be no excuses.

Hope to hear some input from these observations!

Regards,Terry
