99,
I agree that Raven was a resource hog. So for, eCharts is fairly reasonable resource-wise.
Frankly, the big problem with RavenQuote wasn't the front-end as it was the data feed. I also use InvestorRT (IRT). I started with QFeed as the data feed for IRT. Had all sorts of problems. Sometimes, when downloading a daily data for about 300 symbols, I'd see IRT's memory usage exceed 250Mb! I finally decided to switch to the eSignal data feed. Now, IRT uses no more than 30-40Mb, even when it's really hammering with lots of charts and quote pages open, and multiple scan's running in the background.
IMO, RavenQuote's biggest resource issue was the datafeed, not the Front End.
