Can you tell it to collect every symbol? Has anyone done this and taken a look at
what happens to cpu utilization (i.e. are you still able to run charting with a
large amount of open symbols, indicators and systems and other programs
concurrently without losing trade information or noticing degradation of performance
in the other programs)? At one time someone had posted a note that trying this with
something less than a full symbol set caused noticeable degradation and multiple
system crashes on 300mhz PII's with 128mb ram.
