You are welcome to match shredder 6 against SmarThink using the same time control to see if shredder 6 performs better than Shredder Paderborn. I was going to do that, but i decided to match SmarThink against Fritz 8 version 8.008 under the same condiction and SmarThink is playing a la par after 4 games so far, I will post them later. If I increase the size of the Hash to 128 it might affect SmarThink, but i will keep testing it under the same condiction for comparison reason. I beileve that later on Fritz 8 will take the lead being much stronger than shredder Paderborn or Hiarcs. Pichard.
