Very nice engine Trap. I'm a definite fan! clap

I ran some fast games between Mars 3.37 and Mars 3.36. After 41 games they were completely even, 20.5 to 20.5.

Each had the record of +4 =33 -4. Moderately small sample but enough to give a pretty good idea of relative strength. They are obviously close. Mars is over 3000 so now there are two Mars programs over 3000. smile

My machine is an i7 with 4 cores - Engines will sometimes automatically pick 8 threads when loaded on it and when I ran Benchmarks, it says "8 logical processors found". So either it is either big into hyper threading or somehow it really can work 8 independent processing functions. In the end it doesn't matter in head to head matches since both combatants have the same resources.

Chess Rules! cool

I'll run some games today. Every update shows a steady gain - hoping to see this with 3.38 as well. cool

Started with some games against Deep Junior Yokohama (c3050) to get a general sense of strength. I stopped after 20 games since Junior didn't have a single win. All Junior could manage was 6 draws and Mars 3.38 won the other 14 games!

Using an i7 running 6 CPU's
3' a game + 1" bonus per move. No ponder.
"Book 2014"
8 GB Memory
2.56 GHz

Now I'm going to run some quicker games between 3.37 and 3.38

EDIT: Oops! Didn't see the "Mars Tests" thread until after this post so from now on I'll put my results there.

With this increase in performance, Mars is getting hot now ... hopefully, I can see Mars in TCEC next season.
