The book "Schach am PC" from 1995 says, that alfa-beta reduces evaluated
positions with 5 * sqrt (positions). Also some example values are given
like:
positions alfa-beta positions
8 ply 6.5e12 13e6
9 ply 2.6e14 80e6
Are these values outdated? Has there been significant improvements later? I
think today's engines get x plys with much smaller nodes.
