In order to try to speed up ASCII mapping, I reduced the mapped files to a single interval file of 5 minutes for a symbol. I have a 37MB file which when loaded into a chart of 5 minute interval takes about 30-40 seconds on a SSD drive(>550MB/s read speed).
If I now change the chart interval from 5 minutes to 1 hour, I give up after 5 minutes waiting for a chart to be drawn. Same with other intervals.
What does Multicharts suggest in order to be able to view data from txt files since this is obviously non viable?

Re: ASCII Mapping - Painfully Slow
bryanzim,
Please try selecting "Get symbol from: File name" and setting "Symbol" column to "undefined" to improve the speed.
As I said here: viewtopic.php?t=50704#p126191 , this improvement is in our to-do list, but there's no ETA yet.
