One 7000 games-testrun takes about 6 days (running on only 3 of 4 cores). The version-numbers of the Stockfish-development engines are the release-date, written backwards (year,month,day))(example: 141028 = October, 28, 2014), downloaded at [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]. I always use the latest version of one day, if more than one version per day is released. And I use the version "for modern computers".

Below you find a diagram of the progress of Stockfish in my tests since the beginning of 2015. 
And below that diagram, the old diagram (May, 2013 - December, 2014).
 
You can save the diagrams (as a JPG-picture (in originial size)) on your PC with mouseclick (right button) and then choose "save image"...
The Elo-ratings of older Stockfish dev-versions in the Ordo-calculation can be a little different to the Elo-"dots" in the diagram, because the results/games of new Stockfish dev-versions - when getting part of the Ordo-calculation - can change the Elo-ratings of the opponent engines and that can change the Elo-ratings of older Stockfish dev-versions (in the Ordo-calculation / ratinglist, but not in the diagram, where all Elo-"dots" are the rating of one Stockfish dev-version at the moment, when the testrun of that Stockfish dev-version was finished).
