BA download usage?

Postby hmk » Tue Sep 13, 2011 2:09 am

I'm trying to work out why my pc is downloading so much data.

I know this is unlikely, but is there any way that having 3-4 markets opened (no excel connections) is sucking up more than 5 gigs of download usage per day?

This is impossible, right?

4 markets updating for 10 hours for example would be about 400mb.

I forgot to mention that 400mb is based on 1 second refresh. If you use the maximum refresh rate of 200ms then it will be close to 2 gb

is there anyway that there are data downloads happening for markets that are not actually open, but are listed on the 'quick pick list?'

Sports betting software from Gruss Software


The strength of Gruss Software is that it’s been designed by one of you, a frustrated sports punter, and then developed by listening to dozens of like-minded enthusiasts.

Gruss is owned and run by brothers Gary and Mark Russell. Gary discovered Betfair in 2004 and soon realised that using bespoke software to place bets was much more efficient than merely placing them through the website.

Gary built his own software and then enhanced its features after trialling it through other Betfair users and reacting to their improvement ideas, something that still happens today.

He started making a small monthly charge so he could work on it full-time and then recruited Mark to help develop the products and Gruss Software was born.

We think it’s the best of its kind and so do a lot of our customers. But you can never stand still in this game and we’ll continue to improve the software if any more great ideas emerge.
