Uri discovered that when you let The Tigers analyze a single position for a long
time the counter holding the total number of positions searched overflows. It
depends a little on the type of position when but eventually, as you can see
also if you watch tha NPS counter, the engine stops searching any deeper.
Christophe said the bug was already caught and taken care of, so it should be
repaired in the coming update. Would be great, I love letting poor computer do
those 163 hours, 17 plies deep searches! 19. ..b7-b5!
