analysis

unfortunately analysis after a game has changed obviously : now stockfish has always to be clicked, otherwise it does not run anymore without our action,
and it seems to run much slower (sometimes it does not achieve any recommandation for the next moves).
Any help please ?
Many thanxs
@JDfromCannes that is because stockfish 11 is much more complex and it also finds moves faster(it used to run on sf 11), but it takes more computing power. it is not actually slow, just slow at actually showing the moves. Hopes this helps.
Stockfish variations actually have generally increased in speed over time, and of course, strength. Stockfish finds potential moves through a minimax tree search.

WASM SF is able to get to approx. depth 20 in a snap, so it would at least return an evaluation at that depth, not nothing. It's not that it's "more complex," it instead is just not turned on by default anymore.

Hope this clears up some things! :D
many thanxs for your answers lakeofcrackers and AidanbestieaMin.
Generally speaking stockfish does run well, but sometimes, as it is the stronger version 11, it takes (much) more time..
Anyway, I like it much nevertheless.
I'm just a bit sad to always have to put stockfish on (it's not anymore automatically working when we launch the analysis).
