Hi Thorsten
You may be wrong here. Provided an engine is not using
a really bad book, experience has shown that performance
of an engine after many hundred games - or even better
some thousand games - is under almost all conditions
quite similar ... a most popular example is Rybka, simply
top in all rating lists under partly very different conditions
(an exception of this rule could be bullet games with no time
increment of course)
Best regards
Kurt
