Preston,
The YM symbol will cause this problem. I believe it's related to the volume
e-Signal now sends for futures. I have tried several suggestions passed on
to me by Omega members and have had extensive discussions with TS
technicians but could not resolve the problem.
Recently e-Signal formatted the YM symbol as a continuous contract. You
have to insert the symbol [YM #F] as an index. I did this recently and so
far have been able to run 3 charts in a workspace with the YM, with the cpu
usage staying between 20 and 40. I think this is still quite high but I'm
not getting lockup as I did before.

Subject: 100% cpu usage
so, did we ever determine what causes (within TS 2000i) the cpu to lock 90%
of the time on 100% usage???
it takes 4 to 6 seconds for a TS command to take place,... such as changing
workspaces or moving a trend line... or drawing an arrow..., etc.
going off line in the server seems to largely return cpu speed to normal
I have a 2.4 Gh AMD with one gig of RAM... lawsy me!!! what if I were on my
old 386?!
any ideas? I collect data on cme & cbot, a few options, as well as a few
stocks... around 6000 symbols total. the problem began suddenly about
3-weeks ago & has not subsided. I do a regular scandisk, delete tmp files
(each one to two weeks) & do a nightly DisKeeper defrag. have 3+ Mb paging
file size & over 90 gigs of free HD space. a mystery to me. have not tried
reinstalling 2000i... yet.
thanx, preston morrow
