Hi, Angrim!

I find your result superb! Your selective do fine.

Mine on Celeron 600, no hash, is 0.879 sec.

I want to ask you something. I found yesterday that we have on the Net one mate
solver that never came to this Club. Its name is MateMaster.

I had the trouble in uploading its free version on my computer. Problem could be
with the server and contain this solver, or even more probable with my telephone
line.

If you have it somehow and could indicate its time for this position, or every
other that you like, it will be fine. The best for me it will be not so much
finding the mate but giving me some idea where is its brute force branching
factor situated. For this you  could just find time for some position (maybe for
actual one) for 4 and 5 moves deep. It is for seeing this aspect that I wanted
to upload this program on the first place.

Thanks in advance,
Leonid.
