Are you backtesting with the "Visual mode" checkbox checked? If so then try backtesting with it unchecked.

If you really want to see the graph showing your trades then leave the box checked but click the "Skip to" button after setting the date to sometime in 2010 (so that it basically skips updating the graph until the backtest is over)...when the backtest completes it will still show you your graph with all the trades on it, etc.

Fast backtesting is done without the visual mode.
