Is the autolevel feature tuneable?  It would be pity if GNU Go uses
settings for one machine when playing on another.  Good input to such
a tuning function would be reading nodes per second and owl nodes per
second (if such a measure would mean anything).

Per game parameters could be owl nodes per second the last n moves
(depending on the complexity of the situation), and maybe other
measurements that are dependent on the current position.  

After all, the main idea behind autolevel is to use the available time
optimally, and it is very different how much you can achieve during a
given time on different hardware.  It might also differ on the same
hardware given different cache sizes.
