Well, I was having this problem of getting quotes with AQ from Yahoo before.
The download was so slow even to get a few hundred quotes. The AQ is having
little documentation to explain the settings. I have checked different
sources with little information about AQ.
So, I played around with the different settings and found some the following
better settings. At first, the AQ allowed more than 10 simultaneous
downloads (I could set it to 20) and now it's max at 10. It cuts my download
time.
The Yahoo server #1 is faster than MSN server.
