Hi, maybe so, but can you name some programs which cannot cope
with 10 minutes thinking time for 19x19?
SlugGo can "cope" with 10 minutes for a 19x19 game, but because of the
way it is a wrapper over GnuGo with different and parallel search, at 10
min per game it is almost indistinguishable from Gnu. There is not
enough
time to search enough for SlugGo to choose different moves.
Cheers,
David
