Subject: Shredder's great new feature

True to their word on their Chessbase site, Shredder 9 's exciting new feature
of not discarding it's analysis when the user manually steps back in the move
path and then goes back to the latest position actually works well. How does
this not weaken Shredder slightly when analyzing in infinite mode? I am
wondering whether this feature (which seems to be a nice one because you don't
have to wait for the latest analysis the 2nd time you view a position.)actually
costs you more in the end because of hash table limits that may get reached.
Does any other program do this? On a 2.8GHz computer with a 285 MB  hash table,
when does it get filled up with an average engine now and would this feature
make much of a difference?   Please, only chess computer programmers responses
on this one.
