We hope you will consider supporting us today. We need your support to continue to exist, because good entries are more and more work time. Every reader contribution, however big or small, is so valuable. Support "Chess Engines Diary" even a small amount– and it only takes a minute. Thank you.

Chess engine: Smallbrain 5.0 NNUE

 


Smallbrain - UCI engine
Author: Disservin Rating CEDR=2924

v.5.0
Release
A lot has happened since version 4.0!
Smallbrain now supports multithreading. Yay!

Early Lazy SMP Tests show a gain of ~100 elo using 4 Threads vs 1 Thread

ELO   | 127.64 +- 17.03 (95%)
CONF  | 5.0+0.05s Threads=4 Hash=64MB
GAMES | N: 1035 W: 495 L: 131 D: 409
It also features a bunch for other new stuff and is in total 200 elo stronger (not counting smp strength) than 4.0!
The biggest elo gainer was fixing how I use TT moves during move ordering.
Another big elo gain was also a big search tune, tuning 11 parameteres.
