I am not surprised.

It is known that fruit does too many extensions.

It extends every single reply and every check by a single ply and based on
common sense it cannot be  a good idea.

Fruit probably can be stronger if Fabien improves the search but based on emails
that he sent me his choice is to concentrate in the near future in improving the
evaluation that is already very good evaluation and only in 2006 he is going to
work on improving the search.
