This is something that we really can not comment on, as there are too many variables and we are not there. Your setup does sound fine, but 2 years of 1 tick data is going to take a bit to load, no matter what setup you are using. It's simply a lot of data. And keep in mind that there are two different items that you need to deal with - one is the downloading of the data from our servers, which should only occur once and then update with just any missing data; the other is the loading of the data from disk into the system. It sounds like you have looked into most of what can be done. The information we have on how to improve performance (including loading data) is at the following link: High CPU Usage | Inactive User Interface | Poor Performance | Long Time to Load Chart Data | Charts Reloading Often For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
