A program such as Crafty,which has large portion of code written before EGTB will play an ending like this correctly without EGTB for commercial programs, I think the position is trivial without EGTB Ruffian sees the best play after 30 seconds which is good for a single processor machine (1.7 Ghz), other engines like F8 needs only a second on my machine - all w/o EGTB
