Zullil:
Thanks for the excellent link.

Zulli: Do you know the meaning of these terms: "P", "Q", "Q+U", & "V"? I am guessing that V = visits. But, as pointed out, Be2 does not have the highest V value of all the moves shown. Or does the lc0 site have an explanation of the parameters, since when I searched here for "visits", it gave me no ...

" highest P nor Q nor Q+U nor V value."
Hamster, please excuse this lc0 newbie question: What is the meaning of "P", "Q", "Q+U", & "V"?

Hi LK: I just installed latest Komodo.

To Dann & mwyoung:
Are you guys concerned about potential NUMA issues that have been raised about Threadripper with A/B engines like SF
at https://www.tomshardware.com/news/amd-c ... 37895.html ?

MW: I think I will take up your offer on advice re my new system in 10-12/2019. But why does everyone talk about Ryzen 3900X when next gen. Threadripper is coming up in Q4, perhaps 64 cores and certainly 32 cores? I got this advice from ICCF friendly opponent: "Put the graphics card in a second PC w...

Thanks, Mark, for the tips.
"set Syzygy Probe Limit to whatever size Syzygy files you have." But that is confusing. I have the 5-man and 6-man Syzygy files, so would that mean Probe Limit = 6?
