My surprise: Excellent performance by Deep Hiarcs 12, including a tight win over Rybka 2.3.2a ... but look at the result against Toga II 1.4.1 SE.

Deep Hiarcs 12 has lost only 3 out of 50 games against DS 11, Loop 13, Naum 3, Rybka and DF 10. Result: 19 wins 28 draws 3 loses against this powerful group.

But it has lost 5 out of 10 games against Toga II 1.4.1 SE. I know this is a very small test, but I must recognize that this result has surprised me.

I will repeat the test -same conditions and gauntlet- with Hiarcs 12 Padeborn.

Salut!

Here are the results. Exactly under the same conditions:

My feelings, not only looking at the results, but also following most of the games:

Deep Hiarcs Padeborn is a strong program, but Deep Hiarcs 12 is in my opinion substantially stronger.

Yes, the Paderborn version is for the persons not only interested in the engines' strength
