Insomniac 0.60 on my P233, 4MB hash solves the first position at ply 9 in 14
seconds.

It chooses Nxd6 at 8 ply after 5 seconds. However, the score for Nxd6 (1.31) is
not substantially greater than that for its previous choice, dxc5 (1.21), so it
may have seen the tactic earlier, but just discarded it based on positional
reasons.

P.S. Here is the search for position #2.
