Good morning,
The index file is read into memory once for all (if I remember correctly 48
bytes used for each game). The game data (in sn3 file) is read by blocks,
every time it is needed. And I saw info about white and black players in all
3 files (si3, sn3, sg3).
I am not sure of my previous explanation, but if you encounter the problem
again, and if it is solved by closing/re-opening the base, I am nearly 100%
sure it was the explanation (because the code in sc_base_close is pretty
simple and the main thing it does is just flushing "dirty" blocks).
