will backtesting be easier in NT 7 ? It appears that it might be easier to backtest against a continuous contract.

It will be more efficient in NT7 memory and CPU wise. Contracts will also automatically merge old contracts forward so it will provide you with a continuous stream similar to continuous contracts for backtesting.

Can't give you a specific number as everybody has different scenarios. From our testing it is significant improvements.
