Hi Dave,

eng-eng tournament works very good and stabil under Arena.
Martin updated his GUI frequently and try to make the engines faster. In the
latest two years I got 3 or 4 mails from Martin and he told me that he made
Arena faster.

In the time of development of new options is for Martin very important to try
after new options to make the complete GUI faster and faster. Actual we have a
fast GUI but Martin is searching all the time ...

You can be sure that he make with all the implemented options and compatibility
the best.

Look ...
Arena used ~ 8-10 MB Ram, Arena is only 700kb big and better if the engine
loading time is longer but perfect as the loading time is fast and the engine
are in memory!

For me runs the GUI in combination with both standard protocols very good.
Please note that Martin made from version 0.92 to 0.93 big jumpings in
compatibility problems. Since this time Arena works fine.

Best
Frank
