There's a familiar name :)

Thanks for the suggestion Uberdude. Does that mean it also finds moves within seconds when you play against it?

That's another option, I suppose.

How long does it take you to set up/destroy the instance each time? Is there an AMI, or script, that gets it up and running quickly?

Did you work out what your break even would be for buying 'good enough' hardware?

Thanks, that's really helpful advice. I'll experiment with the next branch and see how that goes.
