[amibroker] Amibroker CPU Utilization

[Ara Kaloustian]

I was checking my Tick data installation late at night when there is basically zero data coming in (using NQ emini with eSignal data feed.   Running 3Ghz machine with Hyperthreading, Windows 2000 with AB version 4.79   I noticed that CPU utilization ran an average of 30% for AB, occasionally dropping to zero for 5 to 15 seconds and going all the the the max (50%) frequently.   When I shut off data stream, CPU utilization drops to zero. When I add the times shown on the indicators, the total is about 1 second. ( I know I should steamline the indicators, but want to make sure I don't have anything strange going on )   I have 3 windows using tick time frames (89, 144 and 233) and 1 window set to 1 min.   Switching databases to 1 min data, the CPU load is about 10% average with half the time at zero and then about 15 to 18%. running 1 window with 4 indicators using a total of 300 ms.     Does this seem excessive considering there is essentially no data coming in.   Appreciate all feedback   Ara         Please note that this group is for discussion between users only.
