I am using Tradesation 9.1 with Single Core for chart analysis as I have indicators that use an underlying DLL (ADE) which is single threaded. I was wondering if it is worth porting everything to 9.5 and make use of the multi core capabilities ? Is the performance worth the hassle and time involved ? Thank you for your insights.

Does the 9.5 fix any issues such as any memory restriction with the 9.1 and before. Has the memory space for TS software & indicators have access to more memory? Any idea?

thnx

I've noticed performance improvements on 9.5 during optimization (since it is now multi-threaded). I haven't seen any real performance improvement anywhere else.

Thank you Eric. Have you tried the latest ELCollections (ADE) dll with 9.5 ? Looks like they have a multi-threaded version (thread safe) for this one. I havnt tried this yet as I dont want the hassle of upsetting my main trading station.

I have not.

What about memory guys. Any idea ...I think the previous versions used up if I recollect 1MB of memory. So in my case though I have a 20GB or more memory since I run huge number of indicators which gradually causes a memory leak. For that reason I always have to open my station before RTH and close after RTH. I cannot leave it running for 2-3 days...tops 1 day to avoid an abrupt crash. Have you faced this...rather does 9.5 solve this.

I've not seen these memory issues on any version of tradestation and I've been running TS since ~ 8.0 or so. I leave my TS (9.5) running 24/7 and have done that for over a year without issue.

I have seen crashes in my 3 monitor setup. I fixed this eventually by replacing the stock / crap graphics card that came with my HP PC with a Nvidia one. I have 16 G ram, never see more than 30% memory usage at any time. That being said i do restart my PC once every few days.

rahulgopi,

ELC 2.0 works fine and you shouldn't see an issue with your old code as it should work the same with the new DLL.
The functions remain the same, except the DLL in it is now called EasyLanguageCollection2.

Thank you ABCTG,
Have you seen performance improvements with the new ELCollection and TS 9.5 ?.
