Topic: Multiple running copies of FST eats CPU and RAM soon
Dear Developers!
First, a big Thank You for this exciting tool.
I experienced not a bug but a possible problem when using FST v1.2.2.0.
I'm experimenting with a lot of (30+) strategies at the same time.
This means the same number of running FST copies.
The problem starts here.
As days elapse the FST copies starts consuming a little more and more CPU time and RAM with every tick received.
With multiple copies running the summarized consumption leads to be running out of free CPU time and/or RAM and the FSTs start crashing one after another.
I believe this caused by the Account tab as data displaying (CPU time) and growing (RAM).
Believe because if I restart MT4 (FSTs automatically disconnecting and reconnecting therefore the Account tab resets) the CPU load and RAM usage reduces to an acceptable level.
My question is:
Is there any way (in the next version) to
- disable the Account tab's content calculating and display by - for example - a checkbox?
- OR -
- disable the Account tab's content calculating (and display if "displayed" invisible in the background) when not active?
By the way now I have a workaround by restarting MT4 via the Task Scheduler every day but I think it's a quite "brute" method to moderate the server load (I'm trading on a VPS with quad-core CPU and 5G RAM).
Many Thanks and Greetings.
