If you sum up the >computation times once the match is finished you could well realize that one >program has taken much more time that the other one. My experience playing with ex. 1 hour with engine/engine is, that in too many games one of the programs will loose on time! I know that loosing on time is a part of chess, but I don´t think that is so good in this test. Here are the total times of some of the games played until know 1:20:51 1:20:31 1:07:34 1:07:37 0:45:29 0:45:53 7:30:21 7:42:24 1:19:47 1:10:46 0-1 5:26:01 3:49:19 0-1 So I think you are not right that one program has taken much more time that the other one. In the two last games on the list there is a greater difference, but the program using most time, lost! Venlig hilsen Hans Chr.
