Hi all,
Quick question, Backtests on one of my projects have been pretty slow (understandably, due to some computationally heavy optimization), I upgraded to the b4-12 node but still quite slow, and wondering if upgrading to the b8 node will make much difference? Or is there a way to test a free run?
Thanks!

Hi Anthony Suherli,
With upgraded nodes, you get better processing power. Therefore, it is always worth it if your strategy is computationally expensive. If you opt for an upgrade and the speed improvement is not enough for your needs, you can downgrade, for which you will receive QC credits that can be used for future payments. More often, strategy implementation can be made faster by employing best coding practices. We recommend attaching a backtest/code snippet for assistance regarding optimizing your strategy implementation.
Best,
