    My CPU usage is (again) very high (74% ish) due to PRT (Task Manager shows) since the last update on 22 Jul 2022.

    I’ve had to exit / close the ProOrder AutoTrading window in order to not have my PC fan running on high!

    It’s not ‘environment heat levels’ as all through that very hot spell a week or so back the fan was not running high.

    Anybody else noticed high CPU Usage since the last few days?

    22 Jun 2022, right ?

    When things get more wild (say close to USA opening) I have a hard time making the (keyboard) i and the r come through. Is that special or is it !
    Maybe it’s my keyboard, but this is since … um … a week or so (since that June 22 version is active). Could still be coincidence !

    Yeah 22 Jun 22, but my high cpu usage has not been since 22 Jun 22 … only the last week or so.

    So you are saying the 22 Jun 22 update was made active about a week ago?

    Again, it seems to be only me and you that are experiencing oddities, maybe nobody reads posts anymore … they are all getting rich from trading TS’s off MarketPlace!??

    For fun :

    Makets just opened and my i and r don’t want to work well.

    “Further down the line I talk about the good habit of MyTradePrice nstead of Tadepce, but ths now appeas to be error-prone. So, fom now on  wll stll use MyTadePrice, but only set unconditionally to TradePrice.”

    I will now change my keyboard. 🙂

     

    PS: CPU usage is indeed “high” at this time.

    Yep me too 84% (100% CPU) … see attached, fan is going crazy!

    I only have the AutoTrading window and one price chart open and. until I opened google to post this emessage, I was NOT using any other apps / functions etc.

    Yes, I agree.
    prt uses too much RAM
    by itself it consumes more than any other application.

    Is this due to I and R being shortcuts for Interactive Cursor and Ruler??

    You will recall we dicussed how daft this is a while ago and we both deleted I and R as shortcuts, well they are back in again with Update 22 Jul 22 or even 25 Jul 22.

    In the last 2 days or so (since 25 Jul 22 update?) my CPU (high) usage on PRT (seen via Task Manager)  has dropped by about 20% … PC cooling fans are not racing away all the time now.

    Fans are still high on opening PRT Platform, but then slow down. CPU usage and fans still seem to be  driven harder than prior to 22 Jul 22 update?

    Funny old thing … I noticed my cpu fans have been unusually noisy these last couple of days!

    Fan noise has been getting on my nerves today so I just checked and guess what … there was a PRT update yesterday 2 Jan 23!

    Yes. But the last couple of days is not yesterday for me, but the last week or so. PRT won’t last for 1-2 hours of backtesting because all collapses (and this really improved IMO) … but …

    BUT

    there was an update on Dec. 23. And I blamed that. PRT would use the sky high memory of 11GB.

    Since yesterday (Jan. 3) I didn’t notice much because I have not been backtesting yesterday and today.

    Well I had thought it was more than ‘a couple of days’ maybe a week or so, but I convinced myself it was my imagination!  When I saw the 2 Jan 23 update (hadn’t looked / seen the 23 Dec update) I convinced myself it must only have been 2 days!

    I’ll make a written note when next noisy fans … that is if we ever get back to not noisy fans! 🙁

    I would get crazy if fans would remind me about something I don’t like. I always take care that nothing from the PC is audible (but then this is part of my work).

    What I noticed the past days – but not sure whether this has been the case for longer) is that a 1M backtest – or actually load of bars, is now difficult to scroll through. You even see the chart build up in chops from top left to down right (or something like that). As if it now requires the complete chart to be rebuild from the beginning (IndexBar 0) to the end (Index bar 1M). I am not always backtesting with 1M so I don’t know when this started to happen, but the last week I noticed it for the first time.

    Btw, the Dec 12 update was definitely not there on that day itself. I think I saw that on Jan 1 ? (I can well say that I check it daily).
