Chris, thank you for information. This clears up some of my thoughts. a follow up question. "It is possible that this advice would not work for another chess program, for example one that "clears" its hash table before it starts thinking. In this case, clearing 1Gb of hash table when playing bullet games would lead the program to use almost all its time for "clearing the hash table". this is what I understand from your information. if we are in a tournament with Tiger and permanent brain is on, then we can say that with x amount of hash, if we use more than this then Tiger will have hash collisions. If we are in a tournament with another program why would it ever clear its hash during the game? it would seem this would be valuable information for the search. kburcham
