Delete Kiebitz hash tables


Answer

Question: In the window " Add Kibitzer " the button "Clear Hash table" does not react.

Unfortunately, I have no idea how to check if there is more RAM available after pressing the switch. I remember that the switch worked in previous versions. How can I clear my memory without turning off the computer?


Answer: No memory is freed by this function. The content of the hash tables is cleared. This happens before the next search. There is no feedback from the program for this. Of course this makes sense - if at all - only with already loaded engines. The function is only there for historical reasons. It was a function to achieve reproducible search results. With the current engines, which work with multiple CPUs, it is relatively unlikely that the same results are displayed constantly.
