Re: [amibroker] Massive data loading?

["Tomasz Janeczko" <groups@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

It is MUCH quicker if you change the settings.
Default settings are fail-safe. You can however 
change "number of simultaneous downloads" to 5 or more.
BY setting it say to 10 you can get 10x speed up,
however Yahoo may block you after some excessive downloading
and you will need to revert to defaults and wait a couple of minutes
for Yahoo to unblock you.

Best regards,
