Thank you! Any chances for a multi-core run?

Hi,
I am using arena 3.5.1 Build 2861 for Rodent III. It seems:

(1) no parameter in configuration for selecting number of threads.
(2) the hash size is maximum 1024 Mb. If I set to 2048 Mb, error message "rodent_III_x64.exe has stopped working"
My laptop has 6 Gb of RAM

Best regards,
Koh, Kah Huat

64-bit compiles expose option "Threads" (1 to 4). 32-bit compile uses one thread only.

[Kohflote]

I'm using 64-bits and there is no option for selecting number of threads.

[Adam Hair]

I'm using 64-bits and there is no option for selecting number of threads.

For Arena 3.5.1, set the number of threads for an UCI engine under
Engine Management>UCI>Common Parameter Settings>Common max. CPU cores setting

[Adam Hair]

I can confirm that setting the hash > 2047MB causes Rodent III to crash.

On the to do list, but it's a reasonably long list at present.

Thank you, Adam
