Thanks again for the new update. Just saw at Leo's forum release of Crafty 22.10src. For early testing, some may try this MSVC (32/64 bit) pgo builds.

I could only test it in 2-cores, but I noticed (or I wasn't aware maybe) that it switches from 1 thread to 2 threads while waiting for its turn and when it's time to move.
Do not see how that could happen, unless you have "smpnice=0" in the crafty.rc/.craftyrc file. Otherwise when it is not thinking it should use nothing, when it is thinking or pondering it should use whatever you told it to use with the mt=N command...

:oops: It's just a misunderstanding Bob. It's using smpnice=1 by default and it's working the way you explained. sorry for that.
