Backtest run times

  Hi,

  Just wondering if anyone else noticed it taking a lot longer to run a back test on an IG account recently?  Running a simple backtest with 140 iterations and it’s taken 7 minutes, it used to take less than 1.

  From looking on your profile you seem quite new and therefor my answer.

  The time is depending on code lenght, if it is MTF etc.

  Two different codes with same iteration can vary much in time.

  Depends also on how many people are using optimization at the same time on servers.

  Likewise,I have noticed a degradation in back test performance times.  I tested a variable with just 10 iterations and it took nearly 5 minutes.
