I make some tests with different positions
and cfd has big influence of the search.
So I think it can not only be a parameter for accept draw!?

here a testposition as example:

8/5BK1/8/2kn4/1p2b3/8/1R3P2/8 w - - 0 62

try different values for cfd and look how long it take to find Rd2.

In many games I have controlled I coudn´t see that CM accept a
draw when he is in plus (C3PO has cfd=-10).
So I don´t know whats realy right.

regards
Wilhelm
