I do not know ruffian's results but you can see results of knightdreamer in the GCP and the Wac test suites in the following link http://www3.tripnet.se/~owemelin/johan/KnightDreamer.html If you click on version history you get Testsuit results for KnightDreamer 3.1 on 733MHz PIII(seconds/problem): WAC: 0.1 254/300 1 290/300 5 297/300 ECM-GCP 0.1 29/183 1 76/183 5 118/183 20 140/183 You also get information that claims that knightdreamer is realtively weaker positionally than in tactical test suites.
