The win rates CLOP reports are biased towards optimistic values. So you should expect that the strength of the program you get at the end is inferior to what CLOP reports.

If you wish to optimize for small improvements (a few Elo points), then you need to play many more games.

A question regarding the opening book to use for CLOP. Do you think it's better to use different neutral opening positions (based on CLOP seed), or just start from the start position?

I was using fixed depth testing with the clop-cutechess adapter (which is awesome, thanks Ilari!), and with only small changes to the parameters, was ending up with the same game a lot of the time. So, I switched it to use a different opening position for each trial. Not sure yet how it's working out.
