Well there are time losses, which are caused by bugs in a GUI, but OTH there are also (more often) time losses by bugs in the chess programs. Now there is also a third category unfortunately: time losses by chess programs which are _hidden_ by bugs in a GUI! I have some logs from Arena games, when actually the engine should have lost on time(due to a bug in time management), but Arena somehow allowed the engine to use more time to survive the cut.(claiming time losses was on) Even worse it substracted the time which the engine had lost on time from the next additional time, so it was well aware that something was wrong before...
