Post From: SC burns CPU resources on continually accessing data files even with markets closed

We did not look at the video but we later looked at the screenshot and we understand why they think files are being created. When a file needs to be opened the CreateFile function has to be called. But this does not mean a file is being created.
Which is specifically why I said this: 1. Needlessly tries to create files for already existing intraday/daily data files (which of course error because they already exist), but this may be a non-issue in itself and just part of the access function. You're also basically saying "oh this whole thing is not a problem and it doesn't contribute to CPU" even though a video has been made of SC doing exactly that. I'm not saying that it's something that monopolizes cores, I'm saying it's something unnecessary because of a hackish need for reading intraday data files from every single open chart "just in case" there's more than one instance using them. Make a configurable option per chart that's default disabled because it's vastly not the normal use case. You realize some of your users are also professional developers too, right?
