During the last days I did some testing with some of the freely
available Winboard engines too.
I used Winboard 4.0.0 and all the games were run on a Pentium 200 MMX
with 64MB RAM.
The tested engines were:
- Comet A90
- Crafty 15.18
- Little Goliath V 1.05
- Phalanx XVII
- ZChess 0.92
All engines were configured to use 8 MB Hash tables, and pondering
was disabled for all engines.
The results so far:
Game/5 Game/10 Game/60
Comet - Crafty 2-4 - -
Comet - Goliath 8-6 - -
Goliath - Crafty 3-9 1-3 1-6
Phalanx - Comet 9.5-10.5 - -
Phalanx - Crafty 3.5-14.5 - 1-8
ZChess - Comet 1-1 - -
ZChess - Crafty 2-12 - 4.5-3.5
The two most important results for me are at the moment:
- Crafty is leading in all of it's matches so far except for one.
Version 15.18 seems to be very strong!
- ZChess seems to be very strong at longer time controls. It's the
only engine so far which is able to compete with Crafty in game/60,
whereas Goliath and Phalanx lost these matches badly (Comet didn't
play game/60 yet).
On the other hand ZChess had no chance against Crafty in game/5.
Greetings to all of you!
Have fun!
Heiko.
