People watching closely the TCEC tournament have certainly noticed that the Komodo engine, updated to "Komodo 1970" for the current Superfinal against Houdini, seems to be running around 20% slower than the previous versions of Komodo in Stage 2 and 1, approximately 40 Mnodes/s in (early) middlegame compared to 50 Mnodes/s previously.
If this is confirmed, it means that the update was not a minor one (or bug ?...)
Mark Lefler, asked in the TCEC chat, is not convinced the effect is real.
What do you think ?
Slow Komodo 1970 in TCEC Superfinal ?
