Re: [amibroker] Ram Jam after optimization problem

Hi - Yes it can be quite easy for optimizations to use up all memory and 
basically lock up your computer or generate an exception.  I found that if I 
started using smaller opts and then gradually increased the size until it 
locked up I could get a pretty good idea of the upper "step limit" for 
running future opts without overdoing it.   There is also the 3GB switch, 
you can probably get details on that by searching the posts in this group 
although if you only have 2G to begin with I don't know if that could help 
you.

Funny you should mention this because I was just thinking the other day, TJ 
has implemented "column hiding" in AA but I believe the stats for the hidden 
columns are still calculated and saved in memory. If this could be enhanced 
so that only visible columns are calculated, it would seem that would allow 
the opts to run faster while also using less memory to store the results. So 
we could run both faster and larger opts? Perhaps *much* faster and larger 
if we only wanted to see a few columns? Anyone have any thoughts? Thanks!

Steve
