Subject: CM9000 Testing finished !

I'm calling it quits on CM9000 testing and moving on to CM10th, rather later
than most.

My testing was as follows:

Deep Fritz 8 GUI
40 moves in 40 min repeating, 256MB Hash
Dual Athlon MP2800+ with ponder on
3-4-5 men EGTB
All engines using 2004 Powerbook
no learning

Each CM9000 personality played 40 games against each of:
Deep Shredder 8
Deep Fritz 8
Deep Junior 8
Chess Tiger 15
Hiarcs 9
Ruffian 2.1.0
Gandalf 6.0

That is 280 games for each personality, and 2,240 games in total. The aggregate
scores out of 280, and rankings, were:

144.0 - Slayer
141.5 - Assassin
139.0 - R1
139.0 - Slayer 2b
136.5 - T05
136.0 - Judge II
135.0 - Minotaur 2
130.0 - Alliance

After all that, I'm not certain how conclusive the results are - clearly there
is a difference between Alliance at the bottom, and Slayer at the top. But in
between, the 135.0 - 139.0 range is probably too close to call and they are
probably fairly equal in strength. At this time control under these conditions
that is...
