Subject: testing with unequal time control

I wonder if people tried to use arena to test rybka with reduced strength and if
arena works without bugs with that feature.

testing it with movei suggest that arena1.1 can steal significant time from
engines and it may be the reason for the strange results in 1+1 under arena that
I read here(I found that more than 0.5 second was stolen from movei after
playing the first move and similiar situation for other moves).

I wonder if there is a good interface that cause no problems for testing with
unequal time control because it seems that arena may be good only for slow time
control in the best case and testing movei with 40 minutes/40 moves against
rybka with 4 minutes/40 moves can take a long time.
