This is my theory, but no one buys it! It's "Common Sense" IMO. Regardless how
fast a programme may be it will hit a "Wall" with iterative deepening as the
tree grows larger exponentially. So Hiarcs will catch up over time, regardless
of it's slow node count (slowest I've Seen) and lower iterations  in fast games.

Time will tell;)
