Use slow hardware! Sorry, but I forgot that advice. BTW: Crafty6.4 was better than Crafty7.x in a specialtournament, thats why I recommanded it. Poor SSDF, they use Crafty18.12!! Perhaps they had no CB version of at least Crafty16.20. We all remember old Genius beating Garry Kaparov on a Pentium 90. So the way to go is obvious: Use old programs on slow hardware!
