This is awful for such a simple problem. Many Faces' static evaluation function sees that the white group is unsettled, and the life/death search finds the B2 killing move in one node (since after B2 the group is dead with no further search, and the move generator returns B2 as the first candidate move). It spends another 100 nodes proving that D1 and D3 lead to a ko, and the other moves don't work.
