Dimka-novitsek:
Is it possible to speed up the testing process?

yes - by pressing the Stop button

[Dimka-novitsek]

So, I started testing 3 EAs, the computer became terribly laggy, the Opera did not respond for 5 minutes - is this normal? He has theoretically huge resources? I have two cores, memory, everything - like these tasks and 40 at once should pull? And if I turn off the Internet, but it also handles it? It has already downloaded the so-called history?

where's the mistake a, in terms of brackets everything seems to be straight?

Yes, I'm confused by all these if-els...

[Andrey F. Zelinsky]

frxmax:

1) here

if (total==0)

2) brackets - structure normally - bracket under the bracket - and you will immediately see
