  • Read the PKGBUILD for extra build options.

    • Clang improves performance by about 2.22%
    • Profile-guided optimization improves performance by about 9.75%
    • Large boards and all variants decreases performance by about 29.97%.
  • CPU detection is bypassed because it can result in illegal instruction errors.

    • Set CXXFLAGS in makepkg.conf, but performance improves by only about 1.28%.
  • NNUE files are not included. Information about what they are and how to use them is available at Fairy-Stockfish/NNUE.

  • Scripts to launch xboard are provided for convenience: xbfs-shogi, xbfs-xiangqi
