I don't know about scaling with threads, but scaling by time seems to scale worse than Stockfish.lkaufman wrote: ↑Tue Oct 09, 2018 12:24 am MCTS scaling is close to alpha-beta scaling (talking about Komodo dev.) for up to four threads, somewhat worse from 4 to 8, but no benefit at all beyond 8. This number was 15 at last release, but it seems that the huge improvements since then on 1 to 4 threads weren't fully matched at higher counts. I want to raise this number back up to something more reasonable than 8 before release, otherwise I'd say we are ready now. Does anyone know whether Leela scales ok up to high thread counts (compared with say stockfish)? I don't follow the Leela news that closely. I suppose it scales well with no GPU but can't really use many CPUs with a good GPU. Is that about right?
Komodo?

Re: Komodo?
& of course Leela is not MCTS, so it won't suggest anything about Komodo MCTS.

Re: Komodo?
Just curious...Will the Komodo MCTS version be using EGTBs?

Re: Komodo?
Well, the released version already does, but we need to run some tests to prove that they work as intended.
Komodo rules!
