Default Re: 7 Card Hand Evaluators

oh ok. In terms of merely assigning a integer value to a hand ranking i'm getting slightly over 60 million per second. I have a AMD Dual FX-60, 2 Gigs of ram. For purposes of conductnig the evaluation I assigned a static flop and hands to 10 players and fed that repeatedly to my "determine winner" function which ranks all 10 hands.

The determine winner function contains no memory of the previous hand fed to it, so its like receiving a new hand, but it isolates the processing time, from the time it takes to generate new hands, etc....

I could write a function that is about 1000x faster but the memory requirements would increase 10 fold. Right now it uses about 200 Mbs of memory.

Well, I would still say yours might be faster than any available commercial software, (I think mine are). If anyone has serious intentions on making commercial or proprietary software using these types of algorithms they can contact me. Right now i'm using mine to design bots.
