now i have data. Yes, it hardly matters. It is about equal, I saw just 1% worse
in average in the positions i tried by some reason.

Thanks for the surprise, my only excuse to not seen it is that i dont use only
pvs, altough using 10 times larger windows only makes my default alphabeta-pvs
mix search 4% more nodes in average (not that bad, also a surprise)

This can be a reason to make me use only pvs from now on... have to think about
it...

Best wishes,
Antonio.
