Thanks Jim. Any issues using smaller hash sizes than 1gb with the 32-bit version?Jim Ablett wrote:

Any idea of its strength roughly?Jim Ablett wrote:Hi Graham,Graham Banks wrote:Thanks Jim. Any issues using smaller hash sizes than 1gb with the 32-bit version?Jim Ablett wrote:

I haven't noticed anything. Uses 362mb out of the box on my 32 bit Xp system.

I played some test games against Nejmet and it seems of similar strength.Graham Banks wrote:Any idea of its strength roughly?Jim Ablett wrote:Hi Graham,Graham Banks wrote:Thanks Jim. Any issues using smaller hash sizes than 1gb with the 32-bit version?Jim Ablett wrote:

Hi George,Look, it can't be true that I am ok either way with either his download or yours. Speaking of 64bit now. One of the 2 I will be better off using. No time to be modest. I really need to know. Which?

I didn't test my 64 bit bit version against Tim's this time, I was preoccupied just trying to a 32 bit version working.
I would load them both up and see which one has the highest knps and is the most stable & use that one.
Mine maybe slightly slower than normal as I just noticed I used my 32-bit edited source for the 64 bit compile.
This uses 'C' bitscan routines instead of 'Asm' which is a tad slower. Would be interesting to see if it is still faster than Tim's.
Jim.
