ceres loses on time for first game with small TC 1+.1sec
Seems it takes a few seconds for ceres to start up and this causes ceres to time out. Seems to only happen the first game.
Under cutechess client it is known to be a problem that cutechess will not wait long enough for engine startup. This was previously logged on the cutechess github in conjunction with Leela: #383: Leela times out on startup often: Some newer builds fix this (and are floating around on the internet), but it is unclear if this fix has yet made it into the prepackaged distribution.
We will consider if there is any way to work around this within Ceres.
