Any similar results out there? I have not Hiarcs8 but I am not surprised because Hiarcs was also in the past relatively better in blitz. I see no reason to expect Hiarcs to do better at longer time control. It has not special search rules for long time control or special evaluation to know things that cannot be discovered by search(for example fortress positions). Uri
