Subject: Re: Analysis question for these 2 EPD positions - IMPORTANT: Clear Hash!

One important thing about running these problems -

make sure you clear the hash before each run!

When I run these problems after one of them has been run, the solution time
is essentially zero. The reason is that, after the key move, both problems are
identical, so all the positions in the hash table are pertinent, and it takes
essentially zero time to solve either problem.

Luckily, the first time I approached this, I cycled through all my engines on
the first problem, then all the engines on the second, so hash was cleared.

However, this was by good luck, not good management.
