Alaric hash size problem

[Gábor Szots]

Hi Peter,

Using Alaric UCI and setting hash size to 96 MB I get a memory allocation of 162 MB! Setting 128 MB I get 194 MB allocation (right in the sense that it is 32 MB bigger).

Using Alaric WB and setting hash to 96 I get an incredible 258 MB memory allocation. Setting 128 MB the allocated memory is 322 MB!! This is 64 MB bigger than that with 96 MB setting.

I tried the UCI version under both the Arena 1.99beta4 and Shredder 9 GUI's.

Further value pairs of hash and allocation for the UCI version:

16 - 82
24 - 90
32 - 98
48 - 114

Up to now, normal increase, but too big 'offset'.

64 - 66 (??)
65 - 131

Best regards,

The more hash the better it is!

To be serious, I did this silly update just before the relase and of course there is an error...
There is no real good workaround so I will upload a correction.
If it's ok with you I will send you an updated version and if it looks good for you I will relase it.

Thanks!

I used your old email address. Hopefully it is the same...

In case it is not, I've sent you a private message with my addresses.

Received, and it seems to be all right. Actually, when setting 96 MB hash Alaric allocates only 97 MB.

Thanks!
