Re[2]: TS2k stability - survey results

Much to the dismay of some I am running fine as well, collecting 2034 symbols,
using DTN, and High Speed Port at 460800 baud and have never crashed the server.

Have locked up charting scrolling with my scroll point mouse, the new mouse
drivers from IBM, seems to have fixed the problem.

It tells me that at least one person out of hundreds, perhaps thousands, has 
been able to get TS2k to run for a week. A good data point for assessing 
overall stability.

I have had TS for years and SW before that; this is only to 'time' an
upgrade, and help others to avoid the upgrade blues as much as possible.

Of course not...

My own methods - I use TS in part as a 'front end' that pre-processes data
and then feeds the results to other computers (these do things that are
not possible with TS) for actual trading decisions.

I'd be very interested to know if it still runs well when you 'load' it a
bit more, say with 100+ indicators, with 10,000+ bars, and down to the
1-tick level. 

Thanks for the input.
