I think that running tousands of games between these programs is a bad way to
test.

It is better to test against many opponents and if Fruit has some problems
against Shredder8 but better than Shredder8 and Fritz8 against other programs
then it will not be expressed by this type of testing.

I also think that results may be dependent on time control and computer so I do
not see how can you be sure that if other get different results than you they
are wrong.
