Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first
place. Therefore, if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you
are, by definition, not smart enough to debug it.

SF matefinder is specially good in long mate. This is found under 1 second:

If you want to torture your computer and BrainiMac and Matefinders; very silly related positions but Black wins them.

It is easy to find mate, and even the key move. Finding mate in 15 is harder.
Not too difficult for Zander (my SF Mod),
