TJ, doesn't seem to help... I'm running it now with 'wait for backfill' unchecked. Same huge wait time.
Scan's are like black magic I find... the time they take seems to bear no resemblance to the code behind them... worse than that, I have seen huge variations in the time taken to run exactly the same scan across the same number of bars & same symbol list. Often they seem to jam up or have a 'mini hang'. I'm at a loss. Any ideas...? 14 mins can't be right. Anything more than a couple of mins can't be right surely...? Even that sounds a lot. --- In [email protected], "Tomasz Janeczko" <gro...@...> wrote: > > Uncheck "wait for backfill". > > Best regards, > Tomasz Janeczko > amibroker.com > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "sidhartha70" <sidharth...@...> > To: <[email protected]> > Sent: Tuesday, September 01, 2009 9:54 PM > Subject: [amibroker] Scan times > > > > I'm confused. > > I have a scan that I call every 5 mins (or hope to).
