I can give you the data for my locally running instance of the study - I
have a core 2 duo system. 

One interesting thing about mogo is that even when you set it to a fixed
level,  it has heuristics to stop the search early - so you see that the
following table does not indicate that each level take 2X time,  instead
it is something less. 

It's interesting also that mogo is much stronger than gnugo at the same
basic time control - at least 300 ELO stronger.

By the way,  the ELO ratings are not very meaningful from this report
because they are only rough estimates for pairing purposes and they are
designed to converge very slowly.
