And that's exactly the point where you go wrong. It makes not much sense to want
to have the analysis go to 11 ply. Maybe what you want is to have an analysis
where the engine sees all tactical combinations within 6 moves or something like
that. But a 11 ply search doesn't necessarily do that - it depends on the
engine. It also depends on the position, and what not.

If you want to analyze a game and you don't want to spend more than X seconds
per position, do exactly that - limit the time the engine should take for a
position accordingly.
