True.

I have tested on other positions back when I started using this, but as you can
see it takes a long time for each position so I just tried a single one this
time.
If the search is deep enough I always get the same pattern with the local
overtaking the global.

It would be interesting to see if Crafty and other engines exibit the same
behavior, I would expect so but one never knows :)
