I have found in the newer versions of Crafty since 17.5, that hash table have a dramatic influence on playing. I find that for blitz<=5 mins per side, that anything over 48M is useless, but also 48M is to much for games<=3 mins per side. If you play games anything >15 mins per side, I find that more is better. More isn't better in shorter games, this wasn't the case with version 16.19 to 17.4. And all versions still clean my clock. I think my personal record vs Crafty since 16.3 is something to the tune 0-5500-1. I have one draw in all the games I have played it, but then again, I am not a very good chess player.
