We are not giving up on this, but the basic point is, that the very fact that such a problem is arising with something as trivial as even a 1000 GDI objects is completely ridiculous and it really just speaks very poorly of the Windows operating system. Based on everything we are reading here and knowing what changes have been done, all evidence is that this is strictly a graphics related issue. And the graphics performance in Sierra Chart has been greatly improved upon but the fault really lies at the OS level and that is where we are trying to come up with some kind of solution. We are going to have a new release out in a few hours, that removes the GDI object pool, and we will want you to test that. A lot of work went into that GDI object pool by a very experienced developer, and it is ultrafast and it is very sad that the Windows OS is performing massively poorly with it. Also when we add support for Open GL this will be a solution as well. As we have said elsewhere, the more time that goes by and the more that we develop more functionality ourselves and remove independence from the Windows OS, we clearly realize just how substandard and inefficient the Windows operating system really is. How Microsoft is gotten so big powerful and wealthy off of substandard software is beyond belief. In general every new release of Sierra Chart is faster than the release before. We are quite certain though the detrimental performance, is at the OS level which we are able to work around. The OpenGL support should be a major leap forward. And we are currently working on this now. It remains a high priority for us. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.
