I do not have CM8000 and only CM6000.
depths of 4/10 and 5/11 suggest selectivity=6 and I do not understand the reason
for using this number when experience tell me that selectivity=10 is better.

Here is CM6000's analysis on PIII450 that I copied from the screen
53    1/9  2.14 a1-c1 c3-b4 d1-d7 b7-c6 d7-c7 e3-e2 c7-c6...
2:24  1/10 2.74 a1-c1 c3-b4 d1-d7 b7-c6 d7-c7 e3-e2 e6-e7...
16:44 1/10 3.61 d1-d7 c5-e7 d7-e7 b7-f3 h5-f3 c3-a1 f3-g4 a1-f1 h4-g2
