Hi All-

I'm performing some long backtests (6 months to 1 year) with data coming in every 5 seconds. I know it's a heavy backtest and I've been optimizing it to shorten the computational load.

Anyway, I've had two instances where I start backtests before bed and when I wake up they are frozen at a certain percentage completion. I'll wait for a few hours to see if the percentage completion changes or the days in the backtest advance but they do not. Here is an example of what I see, and I get no errors or warnings telling me what happened. I do see the node still appears to be running, the backtest list says “Running: 36%” and the backtest terminal window doesn't say it was completed, stopped, or aborted.

I did read there's a 12 hour max time limit for backtests, Is this true? If so, what error message would appear? I'm also unsure if I'm hitting my daily log or memory limits as I don't get any errors either. 

I'm in need of help on this.
