Subject: Test Crafty-Engine

Testgames Crafty 15.18 (Junior-Version) against Fritz-Engines:

Conditions:

- K6-II-300, 16-20MB HT
- 10 min./game
- one book for all: general-tree of fritz5.32
   (has no specialisation for one engine)
- nodes per seconds (middle game/late middle game): 120.000-150.000/ 170.000
- F5-Autoplayer (without permanent brain)

Crafty 15.18 against
Fritz5.32	3:7 	(final beta)
Junior5		1,5:8,5
Hiarcs6		3,5:6,5
Fritz5.16	2:4
Junior46		3,5:2,5
Nimzo99	5,5:4,5	(final version)

General impressions (blitz !):
Crafty is still not as good as the professionals, but especially against
Fritz5.16, Junior46 and Nimzo
it has always a very good chance to get good results.
The two new top-engines Junior5 and F5.32 are much better than the rest of the
field (not only against
Crafty), including their predessors and the new nimzo99.
The performance of Crafty 15.18 against the engine-sisters is in average at
35-38%.
According to first tests the crafty version 16.01 seems to be stronger. I would
not be surprised if this engine
enters the rankings of the professionals.

Kind regards
