[Notice] Known Issue in Live Crypto Algorithms by Jared Broad

| Reward Discussion

Hello just 2 quick notices.

1) Live Crypto Only Memory Leak: There is a known memory leak with crypto algorithms which will cause them to die in about 24-48 hours with a 512MB server. We're going to continue investigating the issue over the weekend and will fix it ASAP. We've decided to leave live trading for crypto enabled for the weekend as you can work around it temporarily with a larger server or just redeploying every so often.

2) Live Crypto History: There was an issue with crypto hourly and daily live history data which has been fixed and the history server will be redeployed tonight at midnight to deploy the new solution.

Hope you have a good weekend! Happy Trading!

#1 - Crypto memory leak was identified as a side affect of only using the QuantConnect data source. We've forced new GDAX deployments to use the GDAX data source only as a temporary fix. This will mean you can't do crypto + other assets together for now. We're working on a long term solution to enable all data sources to be available.

#2 - History server has been fixed.

Jared Broad Thank you for the update and resolution of these issues, as well as a specific thread with known issues I think this will be helpful for anyone banging their head against the wall :)

Thanks Crypto; everything is up and stable now. We're closely monitoring the live algorithms and see the GDAX numbers growing so its looking good so far!
