I think to solve this position fast you need a little luck not to see the draw
with Rh3 too fast. Best is not to see the draw at all to have a chance to be
stuck with Rxf5 until you have the depth to see the win ;-)

I tried with a beta of Bringer 1.9 by Gerrit Reubold on an Athlon 1333:

0:01:30.1  ( 9/51)   27792958  -2.11  1.Rh3 Qd1+ 2.Kg2 Qh5 3.Qg3 Qxh3+ 4.Qxh3
0:01:32.8  ( 9/51)   28547759  -2.10  1.Rxf5  (Mat=-680,50=0)
0:01:34.5  ( 9/51)   29441206  -1.85  1.Rxf5 Qd1+ 2.Kg2 gxf5 3.Rxf5 Qa1 4.Rxf8
