Komodo seemed to get very tired near the end.
And SF has a clear plus, too! Perhaps it is just as good or better than Komodo 9?

(Why do i speak like this? [programmers should always understand, vas always did but Houdart maybe didn't] it is because I am TRYING to see Komodo [or which ever program i am speaking like that about] as being the clear strongest, and trying to make sure about it and see if there were reasons why anything still looks only second to strongest about it)

For an original chess engine, Komodo 9 did very well against a worthy opponent (Stockfish 6). I am somewhat encouraged by the results, because if Komodo was cloned in it's construction, I would believe the results would have been much different. So many authors can take parts of Stockfish code and rip their own versions of engines, but Larry Kaufman and Mark Lefler are sticking to their guns. Don Dailey would be proud.
