I do not have a 19x19 bot right now. But I found that fast engines have to
wait for slow engines is kind of boring. For example, if a majority of
engines finish the game within 5 minutes and only one or two engines will
finish the games in 30 minutes. Then all the fast engines have to wait the
slow engines finish the game. Maybe we should consider scheduling games for
the available engines at every 10 minutes while still leave the time limits
for each game at 30 minutes?
