Endgame test: NNUE vs syzygy

[Jouni]

Yes You read right! Just for fun and curiosity I ran Stockfish dev version with NNUE against classic version with 3 GB of syzygy tables. Result:

Code: Select all

Games Completed = 1000 of 1000 (Avg game length = 80.946 sec)
Settings = Gauntlet/64MB/30000ms+300ms/M 450cp for 5 moves, D 100 moves/EPD:endgames.epd(3000)
Time = 15736 sec elapsed, 0 sec remaining
 1.  SF NNUE                  	583.5/1000	280-113-607  	(L: m=0 t=0 i=0 a=113)	(D: r=182 i=162 f=112 s=11 a=140)	(tpm=697.7 d=32.65 nps=2696242)
 2.  SF syzy                  	416.5/1000	113-280-607  	(L: m=0 t=0 i=0 a=280)	(D: r=182 i=162 f=112 s=11 a=140)	(tpm=727.3 d=34.69 nps=2759784)
