Hello Juan,

The answer is probably that we do not really know yet, the SSDF is still
testing. My guess would be that Pro Deo 1.1 should be around 2700 but the
SSDF-match against Shredder especially was a bad result.

It may depend a little on your hardware and the timecontrol you choose what
results you get with Pro Deo 1.1, but that is more an impression of myself than
that there is hard evidence how much. Some tuning to your own system and
timecontrol with all the parameter options in Pro Deo is possible, if you like
that sort of thing!

Ed has given the parameters to play as Rebel XP, Rebel 12 is a bit different
because of for instance the Singular Extensions which are no longer in Pro Deo.
But they were also not switched on in Rebel 12 default of course. Rebel 12 is
still a commercial product.

Regards, Eelco
