Thanks Graham.

And Cheng 4, we could see the engine by Martin.

Ah - missed that it can now use 8 cores.
I'll put it in when I get the chance.

Thanks Graham.

And Cheng 4, we could see the engine by Martin.

Can it use 8 cores?

Up to 64,
I guess it has been very sudden.
To the next.

It's in. I took Firefly out and put Cheng in.

I assume you did not get Amy to run with 8 cores? Last I tried it I concluded multithreading did not work at all with Amy.

Hi Jon,

it would play one move out of book and then keep crashing.

Still no luck with Spike, but I might see if I have better luck running it as a Winboard engine instead of uci.

Couldn't get Toga working with 8 cores either.

Graham.

Book a bit too long (24 plies). 8-12 plies would be better.
