Post From: SC not using CPU fully

Hi guys
Is there any way to get SC to use more than 5% of any CPU core during back testing?
I'll never be able to get a good strategy built if it takes 15 minutes to QUICk test 10 days of data for each parameter I change.
The accurate testing is not even worth considering at about 1 hour of testing per trading session.

CPU is just sitting almost idle. It seems like SC doesn't want to use the power I have available.

It would be nice to know if I could change a setting somewhere in my bios or software that will unlock the computer to do the work. I do feel it's just programmed inefficiently though and needs much improvement to make this usable for algo development.

Thanks
Matt
