Subject: Interesting position from Hossa - Arasan

Hi!

Here comes a position from a game Hossa - Arasan:

[D]r3r1k1/3q2p1/2p1ppQP/2P3p1/1p1P4/pPb1RN2/P4P2/1K5R w

There are two moves which are winning fast: Ne5 and Nxg5 (e.g. 1.Nxg5 fxg5 2.
Reh3 +-). Hossa missed those moves and lost the game. First I thought that this
should be very easy to find for a comp but after having talked to some
programmers I saw that other programs also need more time than I expected (at
least too long for a blitz game). How long does your favourite program take to
see either Ne5 or Nxg5 with a +- score (something like +0.5 doesnt count)?

Greetings,
Steffen.
