YABRL: Crafty 19.13, Ktulu 5.1, Thinker 4.6b and Wildcat 4.0

[Robert Allgeuer]

Geschrieben von:/Posted by: Robert Allgeuer at 31 August 2004 00:22:06:

The following are the results for the 4 engines that I have run during my absence. Two of the engines have already been superseded by newer versions in the meantime, but I still hope that these results are of interest:
1. Crafty 19.13: The results of 19.13 are very close to the results of 17.14 and 19.6, so there is probably not much change of playing strength in Crafty (for Blitz on uniprocessors that is to say). The suffix RA btw indicates that this is my own compilation of Crafty, which - at least on my Athlon TB - is faster or at least equally fast to other compilations.
2. Ktulu 5.1 is what Ktulu 5.0 should have been: it is the strongest Ktulu ever, also stronger than the last free version of Ktulu, now somewhere at the level of Rebel and Aristarch.
3. Thinker 4.6b is further improved and is now very close to the 2600 in YABRL.
4. Wildcat 4.0 has established itself amongst the absolute top engines, close to Delfi, Little Goliath and Fruit.
For details on platform and conditions please refer to the link below.
A note to El Chinito: These games and also the next batch that I will post (ProDeo) have already been played with El Chinito as opponent before the well-known issue has become public. After that I will take El Chinito out, although I have decided not to remove the games that have already been played in good faith from the YABRL games database, in order to avoid any impact on the rating of other engines.

Hi Dan !
"profile" is not a parameter of Playing style.
Pepito 1.59 "profile" is a version of Pepito compiled by Dann Corbit especially for Intel Pentium processor. There is also a version for AMD (Athlon) processor called "pepito_no_profile" available in Dann Corbit's ftp site.

Hi Dan thats just the compilation name from Dann
There is an Intel Profile and an Intel No Profile and even
a third IIRC.

yes, compiled with profile guided optimization turned on. I tested both executables on my computer and the "profile" optimised version was slightly faster than the non-profile version, so I use the profile one.

I do not understand the choice of the names in that case
The logical names based on this information are Pepito_Intel and Pepito_AMD.

Thanks.
Since no play style is listed I assume Pepito is playing with it's default (Conservador).
