Post From: Very Slow Accurate Replay Backtesting

Hello there,

I've been running some backtests on Emini and found it very slow. It took well over an hour to run a year's worth of backtesting.

I am using spreadsheet system for trading, and 1 tick data storage, speed was set to 1 mil.

My CPU is AMD Ryzen 1800X that has 8 cores and 16 threads, 32 gig of ram, and the data is stored on an NVMe SSD, so system isn't the bottleneck here. CPU utilization was only around 10% while memory usage was only 100 MB or so.

Please shed some light, thanks!
