Most humans benefit from slower time controls. GM Gulko wanted the faster time controls, unlikely he could do better at slower time controls. Perhaps most people want a slower time control when they play the computer, my own results are better at G/15 or G/30 against the top programs than at 40/2 (which I practice and analyze with). Machines see more tactics and develop better plans at slower time controls, so there is a trade off. The quality of game for the machine increases as the time gets longer (or the hardware gets faster). Chris
