sesse is very popular because it is the latest version of Stockfish running on a powerful computer. It performs deep and powerful analysis of positions with depths of 40+ and analyzes millions of positions per second.

I don't know if sesse is a supercomputer, but it is a great way to see a deep engine analysis of a game for free without having to buy your own hardware.

Sesse is just a good server hardware, it's not a supercomputer and never was by any stretch of imagination. I think it consists of 2 Haswell/Broadwell CPUs (if I remember correctly both have 18 or 20 cores), which to be honest, are quite an outdated architectures by modern standards. It should be easily outperformed by 3970X or 3990X Threadripper.

I don't think supercomputers and CPUs and cores and stockfish versions should matter at all for players like us. Just run a quick analysis to see if you missed # in 3. Unless you want to outprep Anand in the opening, the only thing that matters is your personal usage comfort.

Lichess stockfish is enough for that too. Like stockfish 11 can help u outperform any gm.

I remember talking to someone in the forums about it, and the only reason why they said wasm stockfish was less useful than local Stockfish on a GUI was because of the GUI itself and the features within it, not because of the slow speeds of web sf. The nodes are not necessary unless you are a super GM, and jessyweinberg, the stockfish that lichess provides offers the same, if not better value.

Sesse probably saves much electric energy: Imagine thousands of viewers running Stockfish on their local machine to figure out, what is going on in the games of Magnus Carlsen (which is the main purpose, although they are occasionally also apply Sesse to other games in tournaments, where Magnus already finished his game). Built-in access to seven-man-tablebases is also cute.
