Zarkov is a lot slower at this than most -- on a P2-300 it
takes nearly 2 minutes and 4.4M nodes to finish 10 plies,
chosing e5 with a score of -0.12 pawns.  I guess the main
reason for this is that I use a lot of extensions and
include most checks in quiescence.  Also, the search rate
is pretty slow since full endpoint eval is done.
