"With HUGE volume on AAPL and RIMM for 2 days, everyone in a trading room was whining about freezes, crashes and lag with *******, RealTick, TS and Cyber. InvestorRT with IQFeed was rock solid. I mean SOLID!" - Comment from Public IRC Chat

My Ensign Windows app is not affected by this and is working well with IQFeed. The Quotetracker app has been getting worse recently. My Internet connection is fine because all of my other apps are working well.

Before, I had like 12 windows spread across multiple monitors and about 250 symbols on my watchlist. Now I have only 4 to 6 windows up on one monitor and about 100 symbols on my watchlist. I also stripped some indicators off my charts. It appears QuoteTracker just can't handle the load compared to other competitors that I use. It used to get bloated and slow down over time (i.e. - bottle neck). I recommend other users to keep it simple. It just can't handle this. I like QuoteTracker for its charts but it needs to be streamlined architecturally from the software development stage.
