I am not quite sure what to make of this program, but I can tell you one thing for certain. There is a certain level of dishonesty surrounding the thing.
For example, I watched Crafty lose 3 of 4 games to it last weekend. It was kibitzing (TwistedLogicCCT) and claimed to be searching 80K nodes per second. <sigh>
Is that on ICC? I haven't downloaded the new version, but I did a speed test for Edsel before his release of a couple different compiles and was getting around ~1.5 million NPS. 80k just sounds bizarre. Perhaps it was 800k? Even someone being dishonest would make up something more believable I think.

Those are from several different games. The NPS is pretty consistent, going from 60K to maybe 150K in the late endgame. None of which do I believe for a minute. Nor the depths of course.
