I have no idea if this engine is a clone of Lc0. I have tried and search for GitHub about it..... could not find any link...

I have found it here: http://www.chess2u.com/t13376-alpha-subzero-nn-for-cpu

A 16x3 distilled net or so? Test it strength-wise on 4 CPU against a BLAS backend 128x10 net at 60s + 0.6s.

It is fraud! "subzero.gz" is not a own engine network! It is a sergio network
256x20-mod-swa-1467000.pb (Dec 29 2019).

It seem it just checks subzero.zip, libopenblas.dll and client.exe (why?) to be there, computes their md5sum to confirm that they are intact (and exits with error if they are not), but otherwise doesn't use them.
And after it starts, it's just stockfish.

Thanks crem, as Eduard said, a fraud indeed!

I can confirm that it's a modified Stockfish (or Brainfish...) that reports an artificially lowered depth.

You sure its really SF? The size seems small 468k for a Stockfish compile........asmFish Perhaps?...Thx AR :) :wink:

asmFish is even smaller than 468 kb. It is only 121 kb in seize….
