[amibroker] Tomasz: about new IB plugin

Tomasz,

I have tested the IB plugin 1.6.1 for the last three days and here is
my feedback. First of all, I would like to thank for your time and
effort to improve the plugin. Some of us, IB users, are heavily
dependent upon its performance.

This is definitely faster than the previous version and has some nice
features, so you'd better include this one rather than old versions
when you release new AmiBroker. No doubt about it.

However, the main problem I had was not fixed. The backfilling process
stops/stalls/throttles at the 58th symbol on the RTQ window. Sometimes
it is not the 58th, but mostly it is. This is not the internet delay
issue for sure. Either IB plugin or TWS has a problem. I would
appreciate if anyone including you would try this and confirm/deny my
experience. 

The nice thing about this version is, if I wait then it will reconnect
and finish the backfilling process without any further problem. The
one thing I would like to change is the waiting time. I guess the IB
plugin waits about 3 minutes and then begin the reconnect process.
This 3 minute waiting seems too long. Could you make it wait like 30
second or 1 minute and then begin the reconnect to TWS? This would not
harm any functionality, I guess. Well, if you say to me 'take or leave 
the current one' then I will take it happily, so don't get me wrong.
  
Another small issues is that if I select cancel backfill at any point
and then backfilling again the plugin will backfill all the symbols
including ones backfilled already. (then it will again stop/stall at
the same point). However, this is not a major issue, because as I said
I only need to wait 3 minutes now.

Thanks again for your great work.
