A lot of problem are evaluation problems
mine needs a long time for this but have no problem in other problems and it
likes Nxe6 from the first ply in arasan3.67

3.68 is first solved at depth 9 with a draw score and only later movei see the
advantage for white.

3.69 is solved at depth 6 and I guess that is also evaluation
3.71 solved at depth 5 and is also evaluation problem
3.73 is also evaluation problem because it is solved at depth 4 only to change
its mind later and to change its mind later again to the right solution.
