I have 2 questions about about what Sierra suggests for best optimization of custom studies...

First do you suggest storing data using SCFloatArray or Subgraph[].Array[] for best performance?

Second has to do with recalculation times... I understand that a few milliseconds is not a big deal on one study, but when there are a ton of studies on a chart, recalculating can add up... What would Sierra consider more "optimized"... example would be having 5 functions in 1 study with a recalculation time of 10ms... or having 5 seperate studies with recalculation times of 2ms each?

These arrays are of the same type. Subgraph[].Array[] is of type SCFloatArray.

. What would Sierra consider more "optimized"... example would be having 5 functions in 1 study with a recalculation time of 10ms... or having 5 seperate studies with recalculation times of 2ms each?
Probably would be best to have a single study. Then you can do all the optimization you need in the best way within a single study.
