It is possible that he used most of the time for writing Fritz8 with a better data structure to do the same thing faster so Fritz8 is going to be 50% faster than Fritz7 and 50% speed advantage is a a significant improvement. It is possible that he did not finish the job 2 months ago but he was close to finish it. I also do not think that it is impossible to make an engine significantly stronger in 2-3 months. You only need to discover some new good idea. I think that it may be better if we wait and not come to conclusions too early. I simply do not know and have to wait like everybody to see if Fritz8 is significantly stronger. Uri
