I was intrigued by your posting and decided to give your blitz settings a try,
using my own book against Fritz 8.008.  Blitz 3min + 2sec, both programs 64MB
hash, Athlon 2800+ Tbred (2250Mhz), Fritz using Fritz.ctg, all 3,4,5 men
tablebases.

Your settings have failed rather miserably, I am afraid.  Whilst with the
Shredder 7.04 default settings and the same book I get about 52% against Fritz 8
at the 3/2 time controls, this 24 game match with your settings was a disaster
for Shredder: +2 -17 =5!!!

Of course, very few games to draw definite conclusions, but still...I was rather
disappointed.

Djordje
