The positional and Material settings look similar to a setting I've been using
and getting good results with.  The Style is a little more aggressive and I've
devalued pawns and pawn weakness a bit to help in opening up attacks.  I also
bumped the queen up a bit because CM9K had a tendency to swap a queen for two
rooks in the middlegame and it's usually not worth it.  Mobility isn't as
important, I've found.

In a lot of test positions posted here it comes in on my Athlon 1200 about as
fast as SKR does on Merlinos Athlon 2400:

STYLE
Attacker/Defender -10
material/positional 10
selective search 12

POSITIONAL
CC = 120/120
MOB = 105/105
KS = 155/155
PP = 125/125
PW = 93/93

MATERIAL
own queen = 11.0
opp queen = 10.9
rook = 5.2/5.2
bishop = 3.1/3.1
knight = 3.0/3.0
pawn = .9/.9
