I have no clue what YOU are talking about :-) And clearly
we are talking about a different kind of using a product.
I have a clue about what i am talking about but, clear to me,
i am a different kind of user than you are. So we can conclude
again, no two traders are alike.
I am not intending to write 60000 stock files to disk every day.
The 15 i watch are written to ascii within 1 second but i can imagine
if you would want to write all data it downloads into ascii files it
will take a little longer. No idea how long and indeed, it might take
longer than 24 hours.... (although that sounds a little long to me :-)
Apperantly you look at so much symbols, i don't. No idea what
Mark Morrisey intends to do with it but i can not imagine that he,
like you, would also want to download 60.000 symbols a day.
Then again, his name is also Mark... so maybe he would like to do
that :-)
Greetings
