Hi Engin,

yes i also use a LUT in cheng. Also 64K table, 4 lookups.
Doing 8 256-byte lookups proved slower, and any other fancy formulas proved much slower (note i only tested in 32-bit mode).
I'm not sure but i believe only SSE4 popcnt was faster.
However even with popcnt the speedup was really negligible so i never enabled it and i believe it's useless. At my level (~2500 elo engine +- rating list elo normalization offset) certainly.
One more binary for how much? 1, 2, 5 or 10 elo at best perhaps? Not worth it IMO unless want to make some nerds happy Wink
