You can set up more than one chart and TS will do the optimizations in
sequence. The next morning the reports will be in each chart. The
number you can do will be limited by the memory on your machine I
assume.
I found a glitch however. If I remember right: If you have the report
screen open looking at chart A (or possibly if chart A is just
selected-I cant' remember), and a different one finishes, it plops that
new report into the one you are looking at, so then you have the wrong
report in chart A, and you lose the info that actually pertained to
chart A. However, if you let it complete overnight without touching it,
or if you watch to see when one is finishing, it should be ok.
I only did this a few times and it was a while ago so maybe those more
knowledgeable can supply more info.
