Thanks for posting this, it is really 
useful and will circulate to our local group. 
  
 If you're running these screens on a 
daily basis, is there a way "programatically" to 
erase the subject watchlist, that is 'make 
empty'   so that you have a fresh set of tickers that meet 
 
your criteria each time you run this 
code.   
  
Best regards 
JOE

  Performance Continued -- What Settings are Fastest? 
  
  Tomasz and others:
  This is a very interesting and 
  helpful discussion. I am sure I speak for many others.
  Since my 
  current system is limited to 1.5 GB of RAM, I have also used special 
  watchlists to reduce the number of stocks that AB needs so everything fits 
  into RAM. 
  Here is a snip of AFL to give the idea how these 
  watchlists can be created. The key is to use "CUM" to find any 
  stock that needs to be in the watchlist.
  Watch for line wrap 
  problems when copying the 
  code.

  //---------------------------------------------- //For 
  increased testing speed,  //it is helpful to group stocks into 
   //watchlists with minimum volume,  //and also by price ranges. Note, if 
  a stock meets //the criteria of a watchlist for even  //a single day, it 
  is included in the watchlist.
  // although I trade with 100k mininum 
  vol, this uses // 50k since 100k gives too few stocks prior to 
  1998
  av50 = MA(V,5) > 50000;// use 100k for stocks over 
  $10
  p1_10 = av50 AND OI >=  100 AND OI < 1000; p10_up = 
  av50 AND OI >= 1000;
  Cum_p1_10 = LastValue(Cum(p1_10) 
  ,True); Cum_p10_up = LastValue(Cum(p10_up) ,True);
  if(Cum_p1_10) 
  CategoryAddSymbol( "", CategoryWatchlist, 56 ) ;//US 
  1-10 if(Cum_p10_up)CategoryAddSymbol( "", categoryWatchlist, 58 ) ;//US 
  10+
