-/// HistoryMax controls how often the history counters will be scaled down:
-/// When the history score for a move gets bigger than HistoryMax, all

-/// the ideal value of this constant is. Scaling down the scores often has
-/// the effect that parts of the search tree which have been searched
-/// recently have a bigger importance for move ordering than the moves which
-/// have been searched a long time ago.
-/// Current policy is to set this as high as possible, but avoid overflow.
