Perhaps so, but it is the most relevant one for anyone who uses engines for analysis.

What is the official link for that list?

I guess this is a missunderstanding, because your header says 40/2 which
practically means 40/2min in the tester world, instead of 40/120 or 40/2h,
which seems what you wanted to say and which is the original CEGT header
too.

If you say 40/2 to any tournament chessplayer he will assume you mean two hours, not two minutes. None of the major testing organizations tests as fast a 40/2 minutes; the only 40/2 testing they do is two hours. So I think the caption is accurate, though I imagine you are not the only one who misunderstood.

There is also the results against Houdini 2 where one of our testers played 40/90 minutes and Komodo finished slightly ahead after 56 games. Not a very convincing sample, but it would take too much patience to play several thousand games at that level on a quad to see if this result was a fluke.

Well, I did not missunderstand you but the previous poster... and even while
I am a tournament player I disagree about the meaning in computerchess.
(The PGN standard even wants the sum in seconds)

I thought the previous poster got it right and just doesn't care about anything except blitz chess. Perhaps I am wrong; only he can clarify this.
