Define weak please....
For instance, Jonny is far from Gull level.
Yes it is,but never the less still interesting....

For instance, Jonny is far from Gull level.
But that's because Gull is very strong (i.e. Gull is stronger than well known engines like Sjeng, Hiarcs, Toga, Thinker...)

strong = above 3100 Elo
very strong = above 3200 Elo

3000 is very arbitrary, and it doesn't really mean anything, what matters is the difference between the rating of engines. Perhaps something like this would be better:
Very strong = The top engine and higher (as in, Rybka and her derivatives)
Strong = 100 points below top engine and higher (Only Naum and Stockfish are "strong")
Weak = 200 points below top engine and higher (By this, the top 4 engine is already "weak")
Very weak = 201 points below top engine and lower (Komodo and anything below him would be "very weak")
By this Jonny would indeed be very weak, but I'd find such a scale ridiculous.
One can't have it both ways, if "3001" (262 elo below best) is "strong", then "2950" can't be "very weak", as 50 elo is a very small jump.

strong = above 3100 Elo
very strong = above 3200 Elo
I'd personally define strong as 2900+ CCRL and very strong as 3050+ CCRL.

If you have installed it as UCI engine in a GUI, and assuming you have a Quad, you should have no difficulty...
(see Engine Parameters, what is your GUI?)
If I double-click on jonny.exe, I get:
option name CPUs type spin default 1 min 1 max 128

Thanks Ernest, I am running the Shredder Gui, I found how to change it in the GUI, I thought I could change the parameters when i installed the engine, but I could not! I think I prefer the Fritz or Chessbase GUI.
Again, thx
