Somehow I told the intra day chart to download way too much data. On start up it takes forever to download all the info. How do I stop the excessive download?

You need to reduce the Maximum Historical Intraday Days to Download in File >> Data/Trade Service Settings.

You may also want to set the Intraday Data Storage Time Unit to 1 Second. This will avoid downloading tick by tick data.
