It's a quantity vs quality tradeoff. Required nodes to reach a given depth behaves exponentially. A billion positions analyzed to depth 8 takes a 24 hours with a modern 12 core. Depth 12 takes 10 times that. Depth 20 takes (guesstimate) 750-1000 times as long as depth 8. Without distributed generat...

I always saw that there are 12 or 8 depth that is been used

Remains to be proven in a meaningful way that some depth is better than another depth.
I believe Boujin tried d20 networks, with very little success.

Apologies for cross-posting on different sites. I've already posted this question on chess.stackexchange, but it seems it does not reach the proper audience there (few views, no replies despite bounty).

Good thing I am not in charge, as your ass would be banned purely on stupidity! Are you always this chippy? Actually, no! However, the statement fits the one it addressed, even if a bit to harsh. Hey Robert. I have a mailing list for people who like to trash talk Dkappe. Reach out if you want to be...

Yes yes, I know who you meant.

Thank you and thanks also to AlvaroBegue. Your paper seems very interesting and I'll read it asap. Hopefully you won't mind if I ask if something is not clear to me :) Of course. The code snippets are not a great source of utility, but the words behind them layout a framework for anyone to follow. ...

you really must work on the way you use the forums. Quoting yourself means I just skip the post, since I assume I've already read it. Plus you can delete part of the quote history that is not revelent. Otherwise in a long enough forum, the quote takes up an entire page per posting.
