Even after forcing the moves all the way through 5...Kh3, it still takes CM9_R1 1:24 on a P4-2.4 to find the critical move 6.Bg3+. It announces Mate in 10 sixteen seconds later, at 1:40. So I tried it with TK 3.33 from CM10th, with the default settings (which is probably not a fair comparison). It took even longer -- 2:09 to find 6.Bg3+, and took more than five minutes before it announced Mate in 10. jm
