The reason i asked, regardless of the universal hash setting for UCI engines in
Arena, some engines will use more hash than this setting, according to TaskInfo.
For example, i have the universal setting in Arena set at 32 mb, yet TaskInfo
says Rybka is using 45 mb. So you can the problem, it's really bad when both
engines exceed the universal setting. :-)

So i prefer some way to adjust the hash setting with an engine parameter, not a
GUI setting!!
