Arasan played in the recent ACCA Pan-American tournament, scoring 3rd after Rybka and Crafty. A writeup about Arasan's performance in the tournament is here.

I have now released Arasan 11.6, which is basically the version that played in the tournament. It has some significant speed improvements as well as search and eval changes.

I found a few fairly serious bugs in the Linux version, so I'm working on fixing those. I also built it with Intel C++ on Linux recently and fixed up some warnings. Intel C++ with PGO gives a nice performance boost.
