I don't notice them worsening things at longer time controls either, but then again, I've never been a very deep searcher, though things are changing. I also understand that you do the full Hsu thing, so your overhead must be a lot bigger. If I find that with increasing hardware speed/slower timecontrols it does start getting worse, I will uncheck the 'singular extensions' checkbox and problem solved :) >In DIEP the price of SE is basically getting too big at those depths. I gather from this you won't be using them this weekend? Or is 90m SD also 'bullet'? -- GCP
