Quote from spongebob:
If I were you I'd get the fastest AMD Opteron I could afford. Not sure if dual core or dual CPU is best for price/performance with Tradestation. I bet ochart.exe or orcal.exe is hogging up your CPU.
In theory, in a dual core/dual CPU system these should be assigned to a CPU each.
I am planning to put together a dual CPU Tyan board system, plonk in the fastest 2xx series Opteron I can afford, and have a RAID-1 setup (disk striping), as I believe TS is a little I/O hungry with the way it builds tick/vol charts. Later I can place a second CPU if I need to.
Then again, it would help if TS was written properly.
