on equal hardware most probably Ruffian.

Here is a tournament when Ruffian scored slightly ahead of Crafty 19.12:

There are other results which indicate an even bigger gap, but these are with
some settings which may not suit Crafty fully (learning disabled, under
Fritz-GUI, ponder=off, not own book, etc.).

Nevertheless I would bet that Ruffian 2.1.0 is (a bit) stronger than Crafty
19.15 in any setup.
