Hi Joseph Ellis: is depth to mate syzygy on the implementation agenda?

Matefinder + dtm syzygy suit the engine.

Even if latest version is 5% faster than 2016 december version it is worse in finding (shortest) mate from Chest database. BTW what is clean search meaning?

Hi Joseph,

Any chance you can add a non-popcnt compile, for those who have an old processor ?

[Jouni]

I would prefer BMI compile and shorter name like "SF Matefinder".

I can do that, but I draw the line there... no 32bit exes. I will add the exe to the release on github when I get a chance.

64-bit non-popcnt is fine !
Thanks a lot, Joseph !!!

Ok, I have uploaded compiles for non-popcount and bmi2 to the release as well. I do not have a bmi2 capable machine, so I have no way of verifying that compile, though.

Thanks BMI is fastest now! BTW after running more tests your version is very good. And using syzygy don't prevent fast mate finding like in Houdini .
