Subject: Hashhit percentage

Author: Michel Langeveld

A question since I get really curious.
Nullmover gets at the first moves out of the book a hashhit % of around 15%.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Bestline:7... Nxd4 8.Qxd4 e5 9.Qd1 Nd7 10.Bg2 Be7 11.o-o o-o 12.Nb5 depth: 10 ti

 hashhits: 647228 hashhitperc: 14.54 hashstores: 1982648 hashused: 73.45
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Later on this keeps dropping and dropping and soon the hashhit% is around 2.5%
I have think something is wrong but what should be a normal hashhit% ?

I count a hashhit as when I get a return value from the hashtable. It can be I
get a good move from the table what is used for ordering but I don't count this
as a hashhit currently.

I count a hashprobes when I look in the hashtable.

Kind regards,

Michel
