Why would you need to run 1000 quick games to test a change to the parallelization? It would be much more informative to take a few (say, 500) test positions spanning a variety of situations and measure how long it takes to finish the search to some depth, probably using a couple of minutes per position.


For Diep i use a 16 core barcelona box with ugly slow latencies from cpu to memory (320 ns+ for 8 bytes random reading). If your SMP works well there it makes a good chance to work at any shared memory hardware Smile

I run then Diep at 16 processors with hashtable size Y (all cores together) and compare that with 1 cpu size Y hashtable.

That determines the speedup. Yet the 16 core run i use 213 positions for 7 minutes. That's exactly 24 hours. Then compare that to 1 core's run, which runs for quite some time a position (usually i give it 1 hour) Smile

With a C program i wrote that parses the logfiles (and gets the biggest finished search depth out of the logfiles) i generate output data that i can throw in excel/open office. You then automatically calculate the scaling and the speedup.
