[amibroker] Best setup for large forex history



PureBytes Links

Trading Reference Links

Hi,

Current spec AMD 1800+, 1.5GB
Will be upgrading to AMD 3200+, 2GB

I'm loading large forex databases and it's getting slow. 14
currencies, tick data from 2000 onwards. I'm importing source data
month by month. I'm up to 2003 Nov and it's taking 2-3 hrs to
intialise/load all the currencies. Current database folder is 1.08GB.
The actual importing of data of each month only takes a few minutes.

If I have 2GB ram, what is the best settings in the data page. I've
read in past posts to set "in memory cache" to 11. But there are 2 "in
memory cache", Symbols and Maxdata. Which one or should both be set
to 11?

Windows XP - paging size 2GB-4GB.
Mem Usage - Adjust best performance for "programs"

And is there anything else/settings in amibroker/windows to speed
things up in the above particular case?

Thanks
Alan
