System reqierments for faster backtest

Niklas87 · 2025-03-15T21:10:10+00:00

Hi! I remember reading it somewhere but can find it anymore, so what are the system requierments for fastest posible calculations in backtesting? My computer is sometimes crashing due to running out off RAM, so i gess alot is done in the RAM part om memory.. Now im running a test with only 110 differnet versions on my travel laptop with 8Gb RAM and Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-10210U CPU @ 1.60GHz 2.10 GHz and its taking around +30min. The code have a few loops and arrays that work together, so might gett slowed down with that, but its noting to extreme. However, i will be getting a new work computer for home, so what is recommended to max out on?

Hi,

The “BackTest” module runs “server-side,” so there’s not much you can do besides having a stable internet connection and an (average) computer…

Was thinking it shuld be on server side, but since its asking for more RAM i thoth things was done on my side too..

Is ther any plans for a version that run more calculations client side? I would be happy to pay extra for it..
