It is interesting you said that because I had a similar conversation yesterday and asked a few of the people who report things to act as future official testers. This will slow down releases a bit, but improve overall quality so we will be doing this. I suppose we have had less testers mostly because most rarely report anything, but that just means we need to find the right people. So I welcome requests for more testers.Ozymandias wrote: ↑Sun Nov 11, 2018 7:24 amFrom what I'm seen in these threads and past Komodo bug fixes, it doesn't seem to be a problem with the business size, but rather with the amount of active testers you've got. As long as the team keeps refusing testers, I don't think another explanation can be given, other than it happens because you let it happen.

Re: Komodo 12.2.1
Did you have a different login name then? If so we did exchange messages and I did respond. If not, then I never got a message from you here.Ozymandias wrote: ↑Sun Nov 11, 2018 3:59 pmAs I said back in February, I'm ready to oblige if you deem it suitable (I'd advise a reread of my PM back then, in order to determine interest). A reply, in any case, would be welcome this time.

Re: Komodo 12.2.1
I....tend to agree. And have maintained that Subscribers (as I was...twice I think) would be the perfect testers...they already purchase and have bought into the project - real world test environment among actual users. People wanting to be testers just for 'free engines', runs again any business model.Ozymandias wrote: ↑Sun Nov 11, 2018 7:24 amFrom what I'm seen in these threads and past Komodo bug fixes, it doesn't seem to be a problem with the business size, but rather with the amount of active testers you've got.

Same name. I did get a reply from another message on a different subject, a couple of months later.mjlef wrote: ↑Sun Nov 11, 2018 4:35 pmDid you have a different login name then?

Re: Komodo 12.2.1
This issue and all the others in this thread has been fixed in Komodo 12.2.2. I thank all the people who reported and helped test the fixed version. Komodo 12.2 owners and active subscribers can get your copies on komodochess.com.kasinp wrote: ↑Sat Nov 10, 2018 2:35 pm It brings me no pleasure to report a new and I believe serious bug:
Under Fritz GUI, engine match, Komodo 12.2.1 does not release one of the threads and continues to use the CPU *on opponent’s time* with NO PONDER selected.
This behavior does not start immediately; it appears to kick in at some point, but always during the first game of the match. When it begins, I have not seen it go away, i.e. it persists for the remainder of the match.
I have not seen this behavior before and I do run hundreds of 3+2 games daily, under identical conditions. I tested Komodo 12.2.1 this morning on several 8 thread POPCOUNT CPUs, and to be sure also on a 28-thread BMI2 machine. Same symptoms:
On opponent’s time, with the other engine reporting 50% CPU usage, on an 8-thread machine Komodo at some point starts showing 12.5% CPU usage and does not fully release one thread from that point on. On its own time Komodo reports the expected 50% CPU.
Tested under both Fritz 16 and Fritz 14 GUI.
