at depth 30 fruit is hypnotized by Qd3 but unfortunately cannot choose it in a
reasonable time

It considers it for more than 9 minutes without finishing iteration 30 and
without changing it's mind.

I have no patience to wait more than 900,000 knodes so the result is
failure

solved 16/20

80% is not so bad and I suspect that fruit2.1 can solve more position if you
only give it more time.

I am not sure if 20% failure is fail quite often.
