Sandro has said many times that the version of shredder that competed in that
tournament was rather buggy and weak version, about 150 elo weaker than shredder
9. I wouldnt call a 5.5-2.5 result a thrashing or thumping as you called it. It
was more of a neck and neck fight, and Rybka or fruit on a fast hardware could
do that to Shredder on a good day.
