I disagree
chess is not only long time control and usually the better program in blitz is
also better at longer time controls.
Hiarcs8 has good results also in blitz based on posts of other people and if
James walker does not get good results in blitz it may be productive to
investigate the reason.
It may be problem in the opening book
Note that James walker also got bad results at G/60.
