I use time control of 1 second per game in my testing to catch bugs. If the new program performs clearly weaker in 1 second per game then it means that I have a new bug(the opposite is not correct and if it does not I still need to do more tests to find if there is a bug). Instant is not well defined. The problem is that you cannot play in exactly 0 seconds and if you have no rules for maximal time that is allowed then the game is not defined. Uri
