RE: Backtesting / Optimising Speeds

Hi @luz.ric

May I know what hardware spec of your macOS? I’ve interest of getting a Mac Mini to run the cBot optimisation but I just afraid the speed and performance of running it. Hope you can give some insights. Thank you. 

Sure.  I have a new MacMini M4 Pro with 24GB RAM.  It's lightning quick with so many things but I get the feeling that cTrader V5 is a lot slower than the old version and they have done nothing to optimise it.  Having said that, I don't think it's any faster on a PC.  I get the impression that this is a cTrader issue, not a “Mac” issue.  

I tested my i9 intel machine with windows 11 and it was a little slower than the M4 MacMini
