Using Century 3 I noticed 2 important differences

[d]3r2k1/1b1nqppp/2pb1n2/1p2p3/rP1PP3/3B1NN1/2QB1PPP/1R3RK1 b - -

18. Ne2-g3    e5xd4  *
     Shredder    :12.00  0.18  exd4 Nf5 Qf8 N3xd4 Bxb4 Bxb4 Rxb4 Nxc6 Bxc6
     CENTURY 3.0 :12.00  0.43  g6 Nxe5 Nxe5 dxe5 Bxe5 Bc3 h5 Bxe5 Qxe5 Rfd1 h4

18... g6 prevents the dangerous 19.Nf5 but weakens the black king-pawn shelter.
I wonder if 18...g6 is wrong too. Too difficult for me to judge. Still allowing
19.Nf5 looks as the start for black problems.

 19. Ng3-f5   Qe7-f8
 20. Bd2-g5   Ra4xb4  *
     Shredder    :12.00  -0.48  Rxb4 Rxb4 Bxb4 e5 Qc5 exf6 Qxc2 Bxc2 gxf6 Bh6
     CENTURY 3.!!:12.00  0.30  Rda8 Bxf6 gxf6 N3xd4 Ne5 f4 Ra2 Qd1 Nxd3 Nxd6

I don't understand 20...Rxb4, look at the score difference of 0.78. But maybe
in this stage it already makes no sense anymore. Hard to say.

Analyze level was 3 minutes average, PIII-800, using Analyze Game.

What do other programs say?

PS, is it just me or is CCC slow since the last weeks?
