Feature request: turn off strategy analyzer logging

[thisolduser]

I'd like to request a way to stop the strategy analyzer from producing log files. I run tens of thousands of back tests a day and I need to empty the log folder every time I restart the program otherwise it takes forever to start up. Not to mention, that it's wearing down my SSD. Thanks!

Hello thisolduser,

Thank you for the suggestion.

I have submitted your feature request for the development team to consider.

Once I have a tracking ID, I will post this in this thread for future reference.

Thanks! I appreciate it! It's just a chore to have to constantly keep emptying the strategyanalyzerlogs folder. When I first started using the program, it was a mystery to me why it was getting slower to start up each time and I'm sure that I'm not the only person who lost some time investigating the reason.

Also, in my particular use case, I would probably also see a performance benefit as well. I run so many backtests that a single second per run really adds up, and most of my backtests are multi-instrument so I end up generating a whole bunch of logs per run.

If any other uses also want this feature, maybe you could add your two cents to this thread? I'm sure that if there's a lot of user interest that this feature is more likely to get added.
