High d players( > = 5d) play 1 5 games sometimes on internet. But not for serious games. I think 10 8 (5 8 at most) is about the fastest a serious 19x19 game can be played comfortably between kyu players. It does not mean the game will last for a long time. Most lasts about 30 to 40 minutes. There are players playing 1 3 games, but their fun is not mainly in the game itself. There is also the netlag issue.

CrazyStone made appearance yesterday on KGS making rather impressive record. I think it rank peaked at 1d and ended at 2k. It was playing at speed limits of 10 minutes absolute, which seems hard for most humans. Also it seemed that people did not escape from the games. Rather few unfinished games. I think speed chess computers surpassed humans quite a while go? With specific approach to go programming thats a frontier where progress can be made?
