Rybka large pages

Post by halestorm » Mon Jun 21, 2010 3:01 pm

Using the information found at the rybka forums, I followed the instructions in the PDF (attached). I have enabled Large Pages in Rybka's options. I have rebooted the computer. I have six GB of RAM on a Win7 64-bit system (viewable by SystemInfo), so it's not a hardware issue.

When I load Rybka, I check the logs and see a "Large pages not used - user choice." Of course, it is my choice to use them, not discard them.

Questions: How do I tell Rybka it is my choice to use this feature?
And what do I specify as the hashtable size (512? 1024?) and where?

GUI was intentionally omitted because the same thing occurs with Arena, Fritz and Aquarium. I believed the question and problem was independent of GUI. Just to make it simple, let's assume we're using Arena. How would I avoid the "user choice" large pages in the log? Or any other GUI if you know the answer about hash size for large pages to work?

can you copy and paste a log? i feel like i've seen that message but then later it says something about large pages being enabled. busy atm but i'll double check later.
