Too skimpy an example to >justify anyone to reveal their innermost secrets voluntarily IMO. What do you define a substantial improvement? I remember that Bas was talking about 65% in bullet against itself and also positive but less significant result at longer time control. He also said that it helped Tao to solve hard positions faster so it seems to help also in long time control. It was only one example and there are ideas that were other good ideas that were discussed here(I remember that Christophe used my rule about draws in chess tiger). Bob Hyatt also use one of my ideas in crafty. Maybe every good idea is only a small improvement but when you collect some good ideas the improvement is not so small. Uri
