Subject: Tablebase cache and hashtables (Fritz 7)

Author: john rice

Hello,
Since larger hashtables increase playing strength, isn't it safe to assume
increasing the tablebase cache would do the same? With 512m of ram available, I
usually set the hashtable size of Fritz 7 to 128 or 256m, yet the default
tablebase cache is only 2m. With all 3,4,5 and some 6 piece endgame tablebases
it would seem 2m of cache would be a huge slowdown/bottleneck during the
endgame. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
JR
