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.

That's a nice collection, thanks.Dann Corbit wrote: ↑Mon Nov 09, 2020 7:34 pm I have had some requests for my collection of correspondence games, henceforth known as "Big Pile Of Correspondence Games".

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.
Taking ideas is not a vice, it is a virtue. We have another word for this. It is called learning.
But sharing ideas is an even greater virtue. We have another word for this. It is called teaching.

Re: BPOCG
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.
