Movei with less than 16 mbytes Ram needs depth 8 to fail high on b5(Nc4 get a
score of only 0.01 for black).

No chance for movei if this is the idea
Movei does not evaluate passed pawns.

Movei fails high on e4 at depth 11

Movei likes Ra4 until depth 9
At depth 9 it finds Ra3.

This seems to be hard for movei

It likes c2+ very much and only at depth 9 starts to fail low from
2.82 to 2.52 but at depth 10 the score goes up again to 2.53

depth=10 +2.53 c3c2 b1b2 c2d1q g1d1 a3h3 d1f1 c8e6 f4h6 h3h2 b2b1 e6g8 d4d5 c7c5
Nodes: 21271672 NPS: 144616
Time: 00:02:27.09

2:27.09 is the time to finish depth 10 on p850 and getting a score at depth 11
takes a long time.
