Hi Didzis

Good to see you play these games, but you have to put SS=10. Johann states SS=10
and 16meg hash tables.

You have to remember that this is still a mass market product, and the 1 meg
hash table and the selective search have been set to play on most computers.
With the power of the hardware you are using you have to change the settings. I
would say if this was a more serious program aimed at the market fritz and Rebel
are targeted for, those settings would be different.

Now is not the time to keep the default SS
