Mt5 is slow when test any EA in strategy tester, only one core is used, and it will run on 3%, how to make it faster
Built of mt5?
what built of mt5
Build 2470
Yes, it is really slower than old build.
Especially (genetic) optimizations are very slow (it uses all cores).

Mine works fine. Which operating system are you running on?
VM with Linux Mint and Wine, 4 CPU's, 4 GB RAM
Can you prove it ?

win 10
As soon as my optimization run is done I will test it with an older build.
I tested it with build 2361. The reason for bad performance in my case is not the newest build!
It takes a lot of time to synchronize the data:
OS 0 21:52:37.064 Core 3 connected
GE 0 21:52:37.130 Core 3 authorized (agent build 2361)
RL 0 21:52:37.136 Core 3 pass 2 started
MJ 0 21:52:37.197 Core 3 common synchronization completed
CJ 0 21:52:37.258 Core 3 US30mini: ticks synchronized already [47 bytes]
MO 0 21:53:05.391 Core 3 EURUSD: ticks synchronized already [43 bytes]
PM 0 21:54:33.404 Core 3 connection closed
QF 0 21:54:33.414 Core 3 optimization pass 2 returned to queue as not processed
I was doing backtests for over a week and one day one of the result took 9 hours to complete. Keep in mind that before that it was done by avg 2 hours:30 min
I am using VPS with 30GB RAM and 8 core CPU. And also I am running the MT5 with Wine.
Can it be that the RAM or CPU got clogged up by data or something ?
It would be helpfull if anyone has a solution. Thanks
