Infact this could be true!

Remove the line 'Priority=Normal' in wb2uci.ini

In a ponder off match it wouldn't steal cpu-power from Shredder but it gain some
because it take a bit more from the gui than Shredder uci. It shouldn't be much
in elo but when comparing moves it's maybe enough to make some difference.
