Optimizer gets stuck on "Saving"

[BrewDog]

When I run the PHOptimizer (or any of the other ones, too), it runs for a bit (maybe 5 mins or so), then just stops with the message "Saving".

I even upgraded my computer's RAM to 16 GB (which is the max it supports), THis is a 64bit Win 7 box.

I let a run go overnight and it stayed that way until I got home from work and killed the process.

I was about to abandon Tradestation because of the availability of BetterRenko on NT. I cannot adopt this platform if it is incapable of optimizing even a simple strategy.

Can someone please help?

BrewDog, on which NT7 release are you working here?

Can you please repeat your tests on the regular Renko chart type with our default GA running in the SA?

Would you then be able to reproduce the issue?

Thanks,

I've got the exact same problem. Latest release of NT....

trend747,

Please clarify which optimizer algorithm you are using and on what settings. Thanks.

Thanks for the quick response. Well, I just shut it down and had to manually kill the process. Restarted it and it only did it once using GO optimization. I've ran about 10 GO optimizations since with no problem.

Perhaps it's an impending doom of my RAM going bad...
