Wilhelm's CM9000 R1 setting performs consistently strongly at ALL time controls.
However Jason's CM9000 Slayer and my CM9000 Assassin perform slightly better
than CM9000 R1 at longer time controls.
CM10th Edition settings testing is still in its infancy really. My CM10th Cobra
setting seems suited to longer time controls. Here is the progress in Super
Tournament IV (NZ) at 40 moves in 80 minutes repeating:

Standings after Round 53 of 56

30.0	- Fritz 8 Bilbao
29.0	- Deep Junior 9
27.5	- Shredder 8
26.5	- CM10th Cobra
26.5	- CM9000 Minotaur 2
26.0	- Ruffian 2.1.0
24.5	- Hiarcs 9
22.0	- Gandalf 6.0
