ahh sorry just saw it. It is hidden under bmi2 compile but it says is also avx2 compile... I was just searching for avx2.

Caissa-1.16-debug:

why in the world are you "testing" a debug build

Very easy to explain, I have 4 cores, one for me privately, 2 for release and final and I still had one left over.

Ok, I said to myself, run debug too. Where do you have a problem understanding that?

cuz it's literally the same engine but slower

if you don't know what a debug build is you could just say so instead of arguing

Well, c++-17 seems to work, but I keep digging.
