Hello junkone,

Thank you for your post.

While I am not aware of any code profiling that has been performed, could you elaborate on the customizations you refer to?

i installed Nprofiler but it can only look at exe files and needs to have pdb available in order to profile. in a nutshell, i am looking for ways to optimize code and look at number of method calls running with execution times so i can optimize them.
i dont see a way where i can profile based on dll as all my custom code is probably compiled in the custom dll.

i just used good old visual studio to profile and here is some interesting findings.


i find calls to indicators that i thought i had remvoed as i dont use them. colored in yellow.
i find using tick is very intensive operation in number of calls. might have to change to 1 second bar.
i find my startup is a intensive operation.
