Chest needs 5 minutes (302 seconds) on a K7/600 with 350 MB hash (much less
would have been quite fine) to come up with 5 solutions in 7 moves:

Qcxc4+ Kc2 Qgxe4+ Qexe4 Qexe4+ Nxe4  Qexe4+ Qxe4 Qxe4+  Qd3  Qxc3+  Bxc3 Qfxc3#
Qdxc4+ Kc2 Qgxe4+ Nxe4  Qxe4+  Qfxe4 Qxe4+  Qed3 Qxc3+  Bxc3 Qfxc3+ Qxc3 Qxc3#
Qdxe4+ Ke2 Qcxc4+ Qbxc4 Qcxc4+ Nxc4  Qgf3+  Qxf3 Qexf3+ Kf1  Qh1+   Ke2  Nf4#
Qexe4+ Ke2 Qdxc4+ Qbxc4 Qcxc4+ Qcd3  Qgf3+  Qxf3 Qexf3+ Ke1  Rg1+   Qf1  Rxf1#
Qgxe4+ Ke2 Qcxc4+ Qbxc4 Qcxc4+ Nxc4  Qf3+   Qxf3 Qdxf3+ Kf1  Qh1+   Ke2  Nf4#

I expect the mate searchers to be quite quick to find one of them.

Have a nice sunny Sunday,
Heiner
