We have just released a new experimental IQFeed plugin that adds 4 extra threads just to process CPU\/time-consuming backfills. IQFeed backfills are resource-hungry as they are sent in plain text and need conversion to binary which is quite costly. Previously all that work was done in single UI thread that reduced UI smoothness especially when backfills were long. Now four separate threads process backfills which should greatly improve UI reaction time.<\/p>\n
