Hi Albert

I have just a few questions I've been wondering about.

Since we are now using a cache, is there a time-out on each work unit before you
submit the same WU to another machine?
If not, what do you do if one of the machines doesn't empty its cache?

Seems we are computing perft(3) WUs, does this mean some of them are
transpositions?
For example perft(8) on e4 c5 c4 is the same as perft(8) on c4 c5 e4.

For perft(11) I can understand if you didn't want to optimize that, but for
perft(12) I think it might almost cut the problem in half.
