Subject: Lower bound of mate in n in the hash table

Author: J. Wesley Cleveland

I see that crafty does not store lower bounds of MATE-n in the hash table,
rather changes them to MATE-300. Bob wrote that he had search instabilities
before he did this. Normally, this does not matter, but I think it makes crafty
considerably slower in finding mates, as it only gets cutoffs on exact scores.
Do other people have experience in this ?
