Sargon V is, like all the Sargons before him, a very fast program. I mean in
nodes per seconds.
It had to be, because apparently there is almost no selectivity in Sargon. Just
speed, alpha beta, and hash tables.
It looks slow because it cannot go very deep. This is because it has to look at
every possible move.
I can assure you that Sargon has absolutely no chance against current strong
commercial programs.
