Go up one level in this thread

Zappa is not really that great at blitz.  In fact before the WCCC I did a test
at 5+0 vs Fruit and Fruit won 75% - and I was using 2 processors for Zappa.

However at 15+5 that score was reversed (of course I was still cheating there :)

The reason is that Zappa concentrates on getting a deep search by an efficient
branching factor, not pruning/big nps, so it needs some time before it begins to
outsearch opponents.  It is a serious chess engine, not a blitzer.
