How to run a benchmark on Windows:

  1. Open the directory where Lc0 is located.

  2. Hold Shift key on your keyboard and right-click on the empty space of the window, so that directory popup menu appears.

  3. Select “Open PowerShell window here” from that menu.

  4. A PowerShell window will open. Type in that window: ./lc0 benchmark

  5. Note the NPS number from engine output and fill the form at https://lc0.org/benchmark-form to share the result with others.

How to run a benchmark on MacOS:

Should you want to keep the output in a separate file use

lc0 benchmark 2>&1 » [yourlogFileName]

  1. Note the version of Leela, NPS number from engine output (from the logfile if you sent the output into a logfile) and fill the form at https://lc0.org/benchmark-form to share the result with others.
