Hmm... took 5 minutes on my old computer.

Did you conveniently leave off a prefix there? :)

Both 5-ply and 7-ply seem to significantly underestimate Blue's strength (at the ~0.06 or so level) compared to rollouts. But 3-ply does pretty well, so I don't think it's truly and odd-even anomoly. Anyway, for these kinds of positions it still appears best to stick with full (as opposed to evaluations or truncated, ala XG+ and friends) rollouts.
