<html><head></head><body><div style="font-family: Verdana;font-size: 12.0px;"><div> <div>The number of threads is in fact the number of cores. A few releases ago the Stockfish devs decided to not let Stockfish determine this number (didn't remember why) so the default setting is always 1. Thus Stockfish is running with "handbrake applied" if you don't know that. <div name="quote" style="margin:10px 5px 5px 10px; padding: 10px 0 10px 10px; border-left:2px solid #C3D9E5; word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;"> <div style="margin:0 0 10px 0;"><b>Gesendet:</b> Sonntag, 01.
