Optimization stops at 2500 passes

Hi,

Great work on the optimization feature.

Why does the optimizations stop at 2500 passes? Can this be changed some how?

If a user can't get the best possible optimized parameters out of it then it's kind of a pointless feature in it's current state.

Thanks

RE:

I would like some customization to how the optimization algorithm works. Stopping after a given time limit or a certain number of passes (given no improvement in fitness). I wouldn't say it's pointless as is, because you can never be sure you've found the best possible parameters unless brute forcing.

Dear Traders,

We plan to provide the ability to change many optimization parameters in the future.
