Re: CCRL 40/15 Testing Conditions (previously 40/40)
i) How many simultaneous games do CCRL testers typically run? ii) If it is more than one, is benchmark calibration performed when the machine running a CPU load in line with what is expected during the tournament? In Kirill's post he suggests rebooting to get a clean slate before benchmarking. But ...

Re: The latest CCRL update (10th December 2022)
Yes, as I said, different tester, different hardware, different book, different GUI and even a different compile of Stockfish 15.1. But the large error margins are surely the dominant factor. +/- 20 Elo or so on each engine with the low number of games. Stockfish 15.1 on one thread was tested: Intel...

Re: CCRL 40/15 Testing Conditions (previously 40/40)
In Windows you just double-click the Stockfish 10 exe and type "bench", Adapted time control for 40/15 would be/: T minutes for 40 moves where T = Your time / 2054 x 15 (for 40/15) From this post I'm assuming that 2054 is the time produced on real hardware for the "standard" mac...

Re: Tiebreaker for "best engine" on primary 40/15 list?
The ratings and the rankings are always subject to the statistical error margins, so even when engines are separated by 10,20,30 Elo you really don't know unless you play many thousands of games. Which isn't possible at this time control with limited resources.

Re: New Engine: Avalanche
People still use Wndows 7 ??
Frankly if I were you I would not expend any effort to support that. Unfortunately when you use old hardware and old operating systems you have to expect that over time some newer software might not work.

Re: CCRL Blitz DB with clocks and evals?
Why we don't offer it is that a minority of the games do not contain this information in the source pgns, possibly due to a GUI configuration error on the part of the tester, or some other reason. If you were prepared to sort through the games to identify those with and without the extended informat...

The executables are built for Windows and GNU/Linux. They are 64-bit only, as I didn't optimize the engine to perform well on 32-bit machines. I hope it won't be an obstacle for testing.
Hi there, no problem, everyone has x64 capable hardware and operating systems now.

Re: CCRL 40/2 Blitz 8-CPU engines only list
We did manage to implement this. We put the RTX 2080 engines in the 8CPU lists as well since they are competing in the same space, but another option is to have a separate list for them.

Re: XMChess a new chess engine
Yes it is very rare that we test private engines. When someone sees an engine on our list, they should be able to get it - either freely downloadable or able to be purchased in case of commercial like Dragon, Fat Fritz, Hiarcs, Shredder etc. I'm puzzled as to why we have Stoofvlees on the list actua...

There must be some memory leak which makes the allocated memory grow with each move, at move 70 it has already surpassed 1GB.

Re: CCRL 40/15 Testing Conditions (previously 40/40)
Is there a discussion somewhere about calibrating for lc0/gpu? We don't currently calibrate for the GPU. Time control for games is simply set based on the CPU speed. That works so far because no two testers have had the same GPU. It would be a problem if two testers had the same GPU in machines wit...
