I didn't notice much improvement in Orego, because the tree is pretty shallow. Of course, now that I've made speed improvements to the program (and bought a faster computer), and now that I understand the sum-of-children thing, the rules may have changed...

How much improvement should one see in a UCT program after adding a
transposition table?

Hard to say in general because this depends on how deep the tree goes,
the allocated search time, etc. For shallow trees I suspect that you
might even play worse because the amount of transpositions is low and
the UCT move selection becomes more costly. It would be interesting to
hear some experiences from someone who's tested this in a
state-of-the-art UCT program.
