Top8 ultimate after round 1

[Clemens]

Hello toghether

a few days ago I started a new tournament. All engines 4 cpu, ponder ON.
This time it is 6 rd 90+30 (168 games).
Rybka had a verry bad start. 3 losses in first round. Strange, but game file looks okay to me. Shredder Zappa and Naum had a super start. The time controll makes some effects....

Clemens,

May I ask if 'ClusterToga' is the one by Kai Himstedt?

Thanks for the games too.

ALL engine with 4 threads and ponder ON will be down your computer to 2 threads per engine if you have a quad.

better do turn ponder OFF !

Hi Enbin

The tournament is played on a 8 cpu machine.

Hi Denis

readme.txt from ClusterToga :
ClusterToga 1.4b5c based on Fruit 2.1 UCI, cluster parallelization by
Kai Himstedt and Dr. habil. Ulf Lorenz of Toga by Thomas Gaksch,
which is based on Fruit by Fabien Letouzey.

So basic engine is Toga II 1.4beta5c. Parallelization by Kai Himstedt and Dr. habil. Ulf Lorenz.


I know it is no public engine but I like to see how it performs on equal hw.
regards, Clemens
