Dear Johan, I agree on that. It is a very sensational development. After two years of hardly any ELO-progress by chessoftware programming. Perhaps those guys are standing on the shoulders of their predecessors, but the main point is that they have succeeded in pushing the limits further for sure. Bt...

dear John, i ve just finished my first test with firebird 1.0. On my Compaq 6710b, T8100 , 2100 Mhz a Blitz 4m+2s Nunn2 testmatch. Both 2 CPU 64mb Hash. An IMO almost unbelievable good result. The best in the Ip/Rob/Ig series sofar. 1 FireBird 1.0 beta w32 +20/=22/-8 62.00% 31.0/50 2 Rybka 3 32-bit ...

I have tested Rybka against R..g3 with contempt = 0 and Rybka performed less. So my last tests are with contempt = 15, which is Rybkas standard value.

Hi there, I don't have a 64 system and sofar Igorrit 0.086v7 (releasedate yesterday) yet performs best in my series of Nunn2 testmatches Centrino Dual Core T4300, 2100Mhz, Blitz 4m+2s, Nunn2 Testset Matches 1 Rybka 3 32-bit 2CPU - +19/=20/-11 58.00% 29.0/50 2 Igorrit 0.086v6 w32 2CPU - +11/=20/-19 4...

Igorrit 0.086v6 is not yet so good. It plays far less than Robbolito 0.09 See my results with Nunn2 test. Also in test positions it performs far less.

Hi, Harum. Each new version shows relevant improvements compared with the previous one. At this moment I have my two computes (one with 4 threads limit w32, the other with 8 threads limit w64) testing the versions 6 of Igorrit. When Igorrit v6 uses 8 threads ir runs about 55/60% faster than Igorrit...
