Yes, I think this report is correct.

It look like Junior was slowed down by a factor of 10 at least. It takes several
minutes to reach depths of 10 & 11 that if you replay those games it reaches in
seconds.

At the end of the 2nd game in this group (round "6" vs. Rebel8), in the drawn
K+B+P vs. K endgame, this takes extreme proportions: Junior several times plays
an "only move" that should take a few milliseconds, but instead this takes 8-9
sec !

Junior5 node meter should show around 150 Knode/sec on this machine. This means
it went down to around 10 Knode/sec or even lower in these games.

Tony, were those games played as a separate session ? Anything out of the
ordinary observed ?

Anyway, I suggest that if you start a match and you get a "non-Junior"-type
node/sec rate, to reboot the machine and try again.
