Excerpt from Crafty.doc:
"The only thing to watch for is that if you make hashp too large,
particularly under Windows, performance will suffer badly
because of paging I/O overhead. When Crafty is searching in
a normal (non-book, non-endgame database) position, the disk
light should *not* be on, indicating lots of I/O.
There is no danger in making the pawn structure/king safety
table too large, although if Crafty barely fits in memory,
doing something else on the machine can cause Crafty to be
swapped out completely or partially, depending on the oper-
ating system you are using."
The disk light was never on!!
