Test Position Negi-Spoelman 2007

Post by Marc MP »

I posted this test position on this forum a year and a half ago. As far as I can remember, only a development version of Zappa (with history pruning off I believe) found it on a 8-way opteron in 8min or so then. Are the newest beast able to find this on a quad quickly?

Best move: Rxe4!
