Introducing a new branch of the Gambit Rating List.
Top Five Competition
on 20 cores and 4Gb Hash
What is the strongest engine if we let them compete on 20 cores instead of one core? Can the gambit positions be better understood if we give engines 20 times more time? For this purpose we let the top-5 engines play on 20 cores and a hash table size of 4Gb. If a new engine enters the top-5 of the Gambit Rating List it will have to conquer its place in the top-5 by playing all top-5 engines and if it manages the number 5 will be removed from the list.

All engines are configured at 4Gb for hash tables. Following the task manager it does. But after some rounds it suddenly start to change. Now the situation is as follows:
