I do not think that the difference in hash tables is important in the case Junior-Tiger. I assume that Junior and Tiger can be only 6-7% faster from doubling the hash tables and if you assume that Junior is twice faster in filling the hash tables (I am not sure if this assumption is right) then it is only 6-7% speed advantage. 6-7% speed advantage is probably less than 10 elo difference.
