After 2 days with antihuman ON, the Rebel-Tiger's ranking is up by 80-90 points
now.
Lex has checked the games against Shutka and most of them were won on time!
It is won on time because:
* the hash table size was set too high for very fast games. Clearing them or
updating them took too long for every move played.
* the time needed by the GUI to update the screen is not taken into account by
the engine. This time is probably between 0.2 and 0.5 second per move. After 90
moves, between 18 and 45 seconds are missing on Tiger's clock, and the engine
does not realize he is losing on time.
We will fix this by:
* setting the hash table size to a reasonnable value.
* setting an "operator time" of about 0.3 seconds per move to compensate for the
time taken by the GUI.
