It takes 4 minutes and 24 seconds on my fast pc (AMD 2000 XP). The engine is obviously sidetracted by the other good move in this position (Ne3xf5) which it finds in 3 seconds. 2 and 3 are easier. Nxf5 takes 2 seconds and Qxf5+ comes instantly. I didn't clear the hashtables inbetween. It would probably take longer if I did. Cheers Martin
