Slow scans and charts

Problem

You may find with BullCharts 4.0 and above that your charts and scans maybe slower on older hardware. BullCharts relies heavily on your hard disk to preform many tasks.

Solution

We recommend using a fast SSD drive 540mps or above to speed up the scan speed and rendering of charts.  There are portable SSD drives available from companies such as JB Hifi.  256G is adequate for BullCharts.  Samsung have high quality drives.  An example is Samsung T5 Portable SSD Drive [250GB].  USB 3.0 (blue connector) or higher is required.
