When trading, I monitor 4 different futures at the same time with the corresponding cash times. My question: What is best for optimal data processing, opening 4 individual instances or opening 4 chart books in the main instance at the same time? Thank You very much. I read the manual but it wasn't clear to me. |

The benefits of having multiple instances are that each one can run on different cores in your CPU and you can view all chartbooks at the same time. The main drawback to using multiple instances is that more RAM is used. When 100% of memory is used, the OS must swap pages of virtual memory in and out to disk, which adds delays. With sufficient RAM you can improve performance using multiple instances.
