Hi Werner, thanks for the update.

I have a question: looks like you don't test Java engines, which is a pity.
I'm sure you would be surprised how strong is for example Cuckoo.

Hi Martin,
you are welcome! I remember I tried Mediocre here as first Java engine. First I had no success how to start, but with JA compile it worked. But in our 40/20 list we have no equal opponents.
This maybe better with Cuckoochess. I wil put it on my list.

At the moment I make test with GreKo 9, Alfil 12, Arasan 13.4, Bobcat 3.25, and some others need more games too.
Thanks for the tipp - I will put it on my list.

But if you have a look in our Blitz-List:
791 CuckooChess 1.11 2568 18 18 1000 :D

That's good news Werner, I probably looked for it in the 40/20 section. I believe 1.12 might be somewhere between 2650-2700. Btw. GreKo 9 is out? Haven't noticed :)
Good luck and thanks!

Hi Martin,
it is quite complicated to start CuckooChess 1.12 here inside Arena.
I could start it with 128 MB hash - not with 256 MB.

I had to install Java before and to run a batch file
javaw -Xmx384m -jar cuckoo112.jar uci

I had to rename cuckoo112.jar.jar from the original JA download.
Why do 256MB hash not work - tried 512m?

Hi Werner,

I think it should work, Arena reports wrong memory use for batch files (it doesn't know what process it runs). It should work just fine, memory use in task manager shows ~384MB.

Just tried Jim's compile (excelsior jet exe) and it really doesn't seem to start with 256 MB hash under Arena. But I had no problems with the original jar.
