It's hilarious, every day SF engine becomes sensibly stronger (and the nets too), so in 6 days I get a 35 Elo points progress of Stockfish at 6s + 0.1s. Really, even if the pace will slow down, I expect another 50 Elo points in one-two months. The binary is also 8-9% faster now compared to 6 days ago, and reaches above 70% speeds of the non-network SF.

Does anyone have the daily/monthly elo Progress of Rybka 3 to 2, and 4 to 3, so we can compare?
No, I don't have, but IIRC Rybka 1.0beta to Rybka 2.2 and Rybka 2.3.2 to Rybka 3 were the fastest periods, some 100 Elo points in a year or so each. I don't know about some special faster progress weeks.

Yes SF NNUE is equal to quadruple your CPU cores for free. Incredible .
I actually got a result that SFNNUE (a couple days ago) on one thread beat Stockfish 11 on seven threads, at 2' + 1", by 90 to 80! So you may be understating it!

It is indeed incredible! Who would have thought that evaluation makes such a huge impact! So much for bean counting! I had always thought that a good evaluation was a shortcut to deep calculation, but never would have I imagined it to this level. The progress being made at closing the gap in speed between classic SF and NNUE SF is pretty impressive. I guess this brings AB engines back into pole position!

I have sacrificed Elo for Honey and Bluefish to maintain some problem solving capabilities - when you get 100 Elo for free in about 3 weeks, that is an easy choice to make.
