I have made a number of parameter changes and yes things seem on
a much more even keel now.

I turned off pondering in Crafty.etc
tried to make the memory more fair.

First thing I noticed was that Gnuchess was faster and
Crafty wasn't making moves immediately after gnuchess
made it's.

The games are much closer now...though Crafty still
seems a tad faster.

Thanks for the tips.

I still can't figure out why when Crafty is white, before the game 
even starts, on the first game at least it always says White mates 1-0.
Then the game starts..?

Thanks again.

Daniel
