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 .

Hello Joseph,

thanks for your time and work.

I've compiled your sources and uploaded macOS binaries to https://stockfishchess.de.

Thanks, Joseph, for compiling nonpc. Works well.

3.3MB instead of 1.4MB (previous versions)?
I guess these are the debug versions instead of the release versions - not a good idea ...

Static linking, some optimizations, etc, could produce bigger executable files too.

Nope.

Nope.

Well, an EXE analyzer (PEStudio) has a different opinion (and me too) ...

Previous matefinder (10.10.2017 / 1.4 MB):


Current matefinder (24.11.2017 / 3.3 MB):

Well, it/you are wrong.
