the problem with CSTAL is that it stopped development 1999.
the code used is from this time.
it would need a little new state of the art technology.
chris tried (the last things he did) to bring the search into bitboards.
there was a stable engine, that was much faster, but not all evaluation algos were transferred. it was shortly before a release, and THEN he sold the company for much money to purple software. and purple went bancrott.
so the development stopped and CSTAL is in a grave.
burried.
under 3 metres of earth.

CSTAL needs more search depth
Note that it's playing on my dual core laptop,
HP Pavilion dv9000t series,Intel(R) Core(TM) 2 Duo T7200 [2.0GHz/4MB L2Cache],1GB DDR2 System Memory [2 Dimm]
It's using 128 Mb hash table and 32 Mb for pawn hash....
