All this knowledge tends to slow down the amount of positions per second that it can analyse but can still reach the correct answer in a given position sometimes even faster than the fast thinkers like Fritz etc. and this is all because of the fact that it thinks "smarter" than fast thinkers do! Fast - thinkers rely on finding the correct answer with minimum knowledge, and this is what enables them to search fast. I hope that i got the point across alright and this was what you were after.
