data it will need for the 7000 tickers plus the op system, etc (At least 1 gig). 
That way you can minimize the times it has to hit your hard disk.

  amibrokeryahoogroupsSubject: [amibroker] Faster 
  Computer
  
  I am going to custombuild a computer that is equipped to 
  run Amibroker explorations as fast as possible. 
  I am running explorations of a huge number of moving 
  averages on over 7000 stocks. These explorations  take a long time 
  on my AMD1 GHz, 768 MB  XP Pro desktop.  
   
      I have several questions that some of 
  you may know the answers to, or at least have opinions about.
   
  #1 If I am running only an Amibroker exploration, 
  and no other programs, will a dual processor help none at all, a 
       little, or a lot.   I 
  think I heard that a program has to be written in a certain way in 
  order to be able to run    
       faster on a 
  dual processing machine.
   
  #2  If a dual processor will help, then which ones 
  should I consider.
   
  #3  Even If a dual processor will help, I still 
  want to stay with a single processor if it is at least 80% as fast as a 
  
        dual processor when 
  Exploring in Amibroker.  Which regular processors would you 
  recommend?                 
  
        AMD #xxxxx, of Intel 
  #yyyy, or other #zzzzz.
   
  #3  I also want to have a very fast RAM.  What 
  kind, how much, etc.
   
  TIA for your thoughts. Ron D
