I do not have tiger15 but I am surprised to read it. I know that christophe does not believe in programs that are weaker in blitz and he tries to do tiger better at all time control. I think that you should check if you give tiger the right hash tables(I read that the default setting are too small) I know that tiger15 was number 1 in chessfun's rating list and clearly better than Tiger14.
