Gee, TS5 sounds like a truly efficient real-time program!! I run DTN Real-time
and 16bit version of Ensign on a 128mb P133 collecting everything
(futures/stocks/indexes/etc) except options and NASDAQ and running a number of
custom scripts in addition to standard tools. NT Task manager shows it uses
15-20% of CPU and under 15meg of memory _including_ the NTVDM 16bit virtual
machine. I have the new 32 bit version (beta) here - haven't loaded it but I'm
told it consumes considerably fewer resources.
