I am a little irritated which style robert is using and which machine and which rybka version. others use other styles, other hardware and other rybka versions. so the results are very difficult to relate to each other. some use big books, mainly that came with the prg's. others use one book for all generated with only a few plies. others run from nunn or other test positions. it seems we can (looking in the different results) say overall that hiarcs is one of the rare programs that is capable to really beat rybka. this is IMO not that bad since rybka killed all kind of strong engines.
