B130: Low CPU usage still an issue

As for builder with genetic evolution - it is not possible to make it 100% without any user configuration, the problem is that genetics has to wait until backtests for all strateigies in generation are finished. The backtests are parallel, but some strategies are backtested faster than others, so there is some waiting for slower ones.

The solution is to increase your number of islands - every island is a separate genetic evolution engine.

Thanks. I already use 16 islands to maximise my CPU usage. 

it was mainly anything that runs optimisations that I had the issue with e.g. SPP and WFM. 

I'm still using B129 RC1 and this fully utilises the CPU for optimisations, until the optimisations start running out in the retester e.g. I currently have a databank with 124 remaining strategies in it that I'm doing WFM testing on using a automatic retest task. I've tested 122 out of 124 so far and the last to are taking AGES to complete because my CPU usage is only 10%.

I notice the same issue with Monte Carlo tests.If I start running out of strategies to test e.g. if I have 1 or 2 left to test out of 100, my CPU usage will keep dropping until it's virtually not being used while the last test takes a very long time to finish.

Has this issue been fixed too?

Is this in the current downloadable B130 dev version?

Thanks
