Tomasz, does this procedure of putting the tickers into RAM work for SQL databases, as well?  Or, does it not work because we cannot use the Local Database type?  Thank you.

Yes, for best results increase both, however do not enter more than your RAM size is because then Windows would swap to hard disk anyway.

Thank you, Tomasz, I'll try that.  Do I also need to change the "in memory cache size (max. symbols)"?

The PremiumData database with all the backlisted symbols is huge, so maybe I just haven't sized the data preferences big enough.

If you want caching and faster use of MS databases, go to File->Database Settings
and change "Local database storage" to "Enabled", also you may go to
Tools->Preferences->Data and increase 'in-memory cache'.
