Houdini 2.0c x64 vs Rainbow UNLimited


At a time when he had to slow Houdini down- or else, he faces "or else!" As far as I can tell, if you slow Houdini down, it is extremely temporary. When you have to face Houdini- I see a lot more questions than answers, and awfully tough now after Houdini stretched the lead out to 20 games. We shall see.


Intel i5 w/4TCs
Fritz 13 gui
1CPU/64bit
128MB hash
Bases=NONE
Ponder_Learning=OFF
Perfect 12.32 book w/12-move limit
5'+5"
Match=500 games

[thru game 250]


Code:
Houdini 2.0c x64     +28    +77/-57/=116   54.00%   135.0/250
Rainbow UNLimited    -28    +57/-77/=116   46.00%   115.0/250




Well, I'm out of answers- if I ever had any- and really can't remember the questions. I suppose maybe if one of the top programs were to run against Houdini- giving them both 12 or 16 cores, and set a control of 40 moves in the first year and a half- then the rest within a limit of a couple weeks- and the planets were in the right alignment, it might get lucky. Who knows. Maybe wouldn't hurt to bring a few voodoo dolls just in case.



Tomorrow-
