TOS extremly memory hungry and slow after recent update

[Data09]

There was just a minor update from build 1898.13 to 1898.15

Hope it helps.

Is your tos runs normally again? Mine not.

TD had all their programmers poached by Tastyworks so they lack the technical skills to maintain and develop a trading platform. The platform has gone from bad to worse over the last few years and there is no hope for them. The upgrades are not written efficiently and they have memory leaks everywhere. Just move over to IB is the simple answer and some day Tastyworks might be stable enough to consider as well....If you only trade futures, then TT is much better from my experience.

They solved the problem. TOS is fast again.

I disagree. TOS is generally better now than it was 3 years ago.

And they did fix the issues this update.

That is all you need to outperform the market.

Today I checked on my W7 laptop and TOS was using 1Gb....

How can anyone use TOS? They don't even have iceberg orders. I guess for most of their customers it doesn't matter, but for those trading size, it matters a lot.
