RIGHT !!! This is the key to the whole discussion !
By giving the slow programs less ram and slow machines advantages the
slow ones !!!

Exactly this was my point !
It is not the same !!!
It is another shoe !
In my experiments and maybe with the 16 MB hash and p90 machines
the knowledge programs win.
And maybe also with 50 ELO ahead or even more (as we have seen in the
elo-lists before).
When I now change the parameters with advantages for the fast-searchers
the slow-ones cannot compensate.
