cAlgo on the RoboForex platform is extremely slow to start up.  Sometimes it just hangs indefinately with just the logo.

Could you provide some details? How long does it take for cAlgo to start? How many robots / indicators / created instances do you have? May be something else that can be useful?

OK, so what I have been able to determine is that cTrader opens fine, its just cAlgo.  I have about 70 indicators and  50 robots

In general the more created algorithms and instances you have the longer it takes to start cAlgo. Every item also consumes extra memory and CPU. So we recommend not to keep a lot of instances you don't need.

From our side we will work on optimizing cAlgo start up time.

I renamed my robot folder and it still hangs on start up.  this is not an optimization issue, like saying it should be faster.  Its more of a "this program is not working issue".  When I opened the program it created a new robots folder with the samples but even as I write this comment the cAlgo will not start up

What about Indicators folder? Have you tried to rename it?
