How does Crafty manage and use its hash? If you are playing long time control, If you set the hash at 432 for Crafty, and lets say this will fill in 4 minutes with strong hardware. If the program does not move and continues to think---does the program just write over the top of the existing hash? Exactly where on each memory stick does the program choose to overwrite? Is the data collected, that is stored in the ram (hash), rated as "worst move, best move"? How is the data that is collected in four minutes of thinking stored in the ram? Is this in some kind of an order so as to only write over less valuable data? If we say that a program on strong hardware can fill 432 megs hash in four minutes, If we say that a program is making every move in four minutes, Can we say that this program writes over its hash every move? kburcham
