Segmenting the result by Time Control:
Fixed = 170.0-150.0 = 53.12%
Incremental = 159.0-161.0 = 49.69%
Global Score: 329.0-311.0 = 51.41%
Against Critter 1.6a (3093): 55.62% Houdini 3.0 Pro (3172): 50.62% Komodo 5.1r2 (3135): 53.44% Stockfish 011013 64 SSE4.2Ipman (3177): 45.94%
Average ELO of opponents= 3.144
Estimated ELO Performance= 3.154 A good improvement of about 19 ELO points over Komodo 5 according to this test and roughly 23 ELO points below the leader Stockfish011013 64 SSE4.2 (Ipman compile). I have enjoyed the games I have seen!. I want to remark its tiny win over Houdini 3.0 Pro.
My guess is that the improvement will prove to be a bit larger in subsequent tests. Perhaps around 25 ELO points over Komodo 5 . I dare to suggest that IMHO there is some room for improvement in the incremental time control management.
