I remember also games of enrique(40/40 on p400) when hiarcs7 lost against
Junior5 because of king safety.

I used programs for anlysis at long time control and I found the problem of big
branching factor mainly with hiarcs.
I usually do not see it with other programs like Junior or Gandalf or Tiger.

I did not do statistics about but I believe that hiarcs has bigger branching
factor at long time control when I found no problem with the branching factor of
hiarcs in the first minutes and the problem was only later.

conclusion:I guess that fast processors are not going to help hiarcs even
without the hash tables bug.
