Subject: Some hashing experiments

Author: Alvaro Jose Povoa Cardoso

My program (checkers) does hashing in all but the root and quiescence search.
This is quite standard I think.
So I decided to changed that to only store in hash, nodes that are 2 plies above
quiescence while keeping hash probing in all nodes as before (except root and
quiescence).
I got some tree size increase, but in spite of this I got a pretty good time
reduction.
Since it is faster now, I decided to keep it. It seems my hashing is slowing
things down considerably.
I would like to ask if anybody has tried this in chess and what results did get.

Thank you,
Alvaro Cardoso
