: Hi Gary,
: Thanks for checking out the drawing speed on the value/cost graph.
: The stacked symbol graph is not the same as the
: stacked portfolio value graph, with just a
: legend change. FM actually bins all of the
: investments that have the same symbol together
: into a single section, where they would be
: separate sections in the value based graph.
: This sorting operation is probably the cause
: of the slightly slower drawing speed. Is it
: significant on your machine/data? It should
: not be that much slower...

: Thanks,
: Mark

Hi...Mark,

Since the stacked graphs are not much value to me,
I never noticed investments with the same symbol
were grouped together. Learn something new every
day.

The Stacked Portfolio Value graph starts beening
displayed immediately, while the Stacked Symbol
graph takes an extra 3 or so seconds before the graph
starts to be displayed. I have 97 dat files to process,
a total of 1.8 MB of data in them. I run NT 4.0 on a
K6 300 MHZ machine. So its not much slower, and
its no big deal to me since I don't use the stacked
graphs in the first place.

Gary
