sounds logical but is not really a good idea !
I've also made some tests with this thought(s)
i.e.

Pro Deo (another style)
played with 40moves/1min + 40moves/1min
vs Shredder 8       1.5 - 38.5 !!
vs Fritz 8.0.0.26   2.0 - 38.0 !!
played with 40moves/2min + 40moves/2min
vs Shredder 8       3.5 - 36.5 !!
vs Fritz 8.0.0.26   3.0 - 37.0 !!
played with 40moves/5min + 40moves/5min
vs Shredder 8       7.5 - 32.5
vs Fritz 8.0.0.26   6.5 - 33.5
BUT :-)

played with 40moves/20min + 40moves/20min
vs Shredder 8      16.5 - 23.5 !!
vs Fritz 8.0.0.26  12.0 - 28.0 !

A N D

Pro Deo (again another style)
played with 40moves/1min + 40moves/1min
vs Shredder 8      12.0 - 28.0
vs Fritz 8.0.0.26   9.5 - 30.5
played with 40moves/2min + 40moves/2min
vs Shredder 8      14.5 - 25.5 !
vs Fritz 8.0.0.26  11.5 - 28.5
played with 40moves/5min + 40moves/5min
vs Shredder 8      12.5 - 27.5
vs Fritz 8.0.0.26  14.5 - 25.5 !
BUT :-(

played with 40moves/20min + 40moves/20min
vs Shredder 8       8.5 - 31.5
vs Fritz 8.0.0.26  10.0 - 30.0

I think you know what i will tell you ?!

i.e.
DP don't use the fully given Hash in blitz and/or bullet
(60MB given - only 28MB use)

maybe some code also isn't used on this short timecontrolls?
perhabs the other ones do similar?

Best G.S.
