      Hi Graham
      Where can such tests be found? I only know from testing
      CM-settings vs CM-settings, or knockout tournament over
      only 20 games per match and a trial by Jason to test
      various CM-settings against Shredder 9. But never have
      I read about a test of a specific CM10k-setting at longer
      time controls with matches of 50 games vs 8-10 non CM-engines
      (total 400-500 games). And as long as this work has not be
      done, nobody will be able to conclude something concrete
      about real strenght of a CM10k-setting. The only thing we
      have done is a test CM10k-default over 410 games (40'/40)
      vs 15 others engines, see at http://www.utzingerk.com/cm10k.htm
      Best regards
      Kurt
