Afaik, the best way to utilize a multi-core CPU is to run multiple instances of Sierra. Each new Sierrachart you launch, will use a different core. Hence, the discussion above. More cores is better if you intend to run multiple instances of Sierra. If you intend to just run one SierraChart instance, go for the highest clock speed. (something like 3.7 Ghz). It should be said that Sierra is extremely efficient. Combined with a SSD it's extremely fast. Only when you run 6-8 instances, you will notice slow down. Particularly, when charting 30 symbols it takes some time to update each chart. --- Question to development team: Which do you rate more important? CPU, RAM, SSD? And in which order? I think it's probably, 1. SSD, 2. CPU, then 3. RAM. Do you agree with this? (ps. I assume you track say 30 symbols, and you run like 6~ Sierra Chart instances.)
