Go up one level in this thread
Gabor, >I have found that when using the SC GUI for solving test suites some UCI >engines move immediately, while others don't stop calculating when time is >up. Neither the HIARCS 10 GUI nor Arena does this. The engines probably have UCI implementation bugs in them e.g. early versions of Glaurung didn't implement the exact move time feature. Yes the SC GUI does sometimes allow engines to think a little longer than the level would imply. However the results are tabulated at the end to show exactly how many positions were solved in the specified time. As an aside I have hear (but not verified for myself) that Arena does take up some cycles - i.e. there is some waisted time. Hiarcs GUI is great, although it takes ages to load compared to SC.
