Any Developers Who Worked on TradeStation 2000i

[Trip]

I realize that this is a bizarre question. However, I'm wondering if
any participants within this news-group had worked on the development
TradeStation 4.0 or TradeStation 2000i.

My technical question is this...

How is it that TradeStation can read-in 10,000 records, apply a complex
trading method to the data points, and spit-out rather detailed reports
in roughly 1 to 2 seconds? It takes me 80 seconds to do the same thing
using a static forward-only record-set. Yes, I'm using VB6 and Access,
but come-on, 2 seconds vs 80 seconds?

Is TradeStation transversing a proprietary data blob? What am I doing
wrong? Is it simply very tight low level code vs. my shabby VB6?

Any direction that anyone would like to provide would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks!

The only direction I can provide is to point you to other newsgroups
where your post would be not be off-topic. See the FAQ for what is
on-topic and for some ideas on better places to post:
