I have had some requests for my collection of correspondence games, henceforth known as "Big Pile Of Correspondence Games".
It turns out my memory was a little fuzzy. I don't have a million correspondence games, I have two million.
Anyway, this is a link to the 7zip compressed PGN file:

Get it fast because I won't leave it up forever.
About 205MB compressed and 1.3GB decompressed.

Thanks Dann!

That's a nice collection, thanks.

It gave 2.2 million new positions, in total now 31 million.

Did a tryout analysis 100,000 positions, SF12, depth=20, 18 threads, time 2h:55m, rounded, 3 hours.
CPU - Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2680 v2 @ 2.80GHz

For 31 million positions (18 threads) that would mean 310*3=930 hours = 38 days and 18 hours.

Afterwards, I suggest to mini-max them.

I guess that almost all of them will be analyzed already by Bojun Guo.
Now, a lot of his data will be analyzed with a slightly older version of SF, so you might want to go ahead and analyze for that reason, but I guess almost all of them will already have been analyzed and stored in his dataset.
A lookup will be a lot faster than an analysis pass. If you download his full database, the lookups will be local rather than over the net and hence greasy fast.

Yes, I forgot about his excellent work.
