Bruce,

Thank you for the clarifications on the Custom PCF Indicators calculations. That is where a more powerful processor should help.

Would you please explain the meaning of user interface painting ? (Sorry for being so persistent)

Regards

Bruce,

Would you please explain the meaning of user interface painting and the impact on the selection of computer hardware.

My setup is displaying many simultaneous graphs using numerous customs indicators requiring lengthy calculations. When I configured those indicators, TC2000 notified that the calculation speed would be Very Slow. Are those calculations done on my computer or on your server?  If done on my computer won't I benefit from a faster computer ?

Thanks

Bruce,

Could you clarify your second paragraph for me?

a) are you saying that there is no advantage in having more than a one-core processor (if it were to exist) ?

and

b) that the graphic cards will be running mostly idle waiting for the processor one-core to feed them with data ?

 

I am currently using a four-graphic card computer driving eight monitors.

 

Thanks

Bruce,

As discussed last week I am posting my question again:

I am about to replace my computer. What is the number of processor physical cores TC2000v17 can take advantage of (4, 6, more)
Also would like to know if TC2000 will use Intel logical cores Hyper-Threading Technology ?

Thank you

Michael

Thank you again Bruce,

I will take your latest reply under consideration and ask again next week to complete the overall picture.

I am currently using version 12.6 but sometimes using version 17 to get a feel for the differences.
So far so good, version 17 seems more responsive than version 12.6 which sometimes lags a little bit. (I am displaying many simultaneous graphs using numerous customs indicators requiring lengthy calculations).

Is there really a difference in my computer performance between the two versions or I am imagining things ?

Thank you Bruce for your quick answer, I appreciate.
I understand what your saying but still would like to hear from your collegue next week if that is possible.

I am also interested in getting Canadian real time data, even for a fee!
