I will give fritz 5 all the hash it wants 256mb. I know it will not help Fritz 5
or Fritz 5.32 over using 128mb. I will use it because perception is everything,
and it they think this will make Fritz 5 and Fritz 5.32 into superman so be it.

There is no big advantage in clearing or not clearing the hash tables, if people
think this alone can account for Hiarcs7.32 winning some of the matches, they
are full of it, the winning percentage is too big. I am left with the only
conclusion, Hiarcs7.32 is good.
