asmFish or McBrain
Posted: Tue Jan 23, 2018 6:42 am
If SF-McBrain happens to win this little match, it will be posted for download within 10 days. If not, it be a while yet.
My apologies for posting here - but with asmfish getting getting nearly 1000 downloads in 48 hours, I figure there would be interest in this.
As an a side, the separate forum for matches was actually started when I was a moderator and the sole reason it was started was because most of the posts were very, very long with lots of games in pgn format. I promise no games or results will be posted here except for a few lines when the final result is in - good or bad.
Engine 1: dev-SF-McBrain-v5.0
Engine 2: latest asmFish - which runs about 20% faster than SF and SF-McB
100 games, 50 positions randomly selected by a script from recent ICCF games among highly rated players. The draw rate will likely be high.
Time Control: 15 minutes with 15 second increment
CPUS: 2
Computer: 12 Core 2010 Mac Pro 3.46 Ghz with PopCnt, 6 games will run concurrently.
Started: Match started: 01/24/18 : 00:00:00 EST
Target completion: 01/25/18 : 00:00:00
Match Software: Bob Hyatt's own self-written match program and script (modified).
Time Updates: 1st Update at 01/24/18 : 00:01:30 EST and every 45 minutes thereafter. There may be zero games completed at the first update.

Match Updates: in addition to Time Updates Updates, there will also be completion updates , based on every 10 games completed. Might be a little bit over every two hours. We will have to see.

PGN File: Updated whenever there is Time Update or a Match Update

Why two cores, there is no question that asmFish would win most single core matches vs McBrain, but this version of McBrain has a little patch written by Günther Demetz that does amazing well in SF-McBrain. The patch occasionally sends the second core off on a special assignment under certain conditions.
How well with two cores?
