Why is the optimizer taking so long to create my lineups?

Crunching lineup data can be time consuming if you don't have the right settings.

Lineup calculation speed in DFS Hero depends on several factors, including the number of lineups being generated, the data points used for calculations, and any additional settings you’ve configured in the optimizer. While lineup calculation can range from a few seconds to several minutes, there are several ways to improve speeds:

Tips for Faster Lineup Calculation:

1. Turn on Randomness:

Why It Helps: When generating 150+ lineups, enabling Randomness is essential. Randomness introduces variability in lineup generation, which not only speeds up the process but also ensures more diverse outcomes. This is an industry-standard practice used by professional DFS tools.

2. Edit Your Player Pool:

Why It Helps: Narrowing down your player pool by removing players or filtering out certain teams can significantly reduce the time required for calculations. A smaller player pool means fewer combinations to evaluate, leading to faster lineup generation.

3. Try Using Fewer Settings:

Why It Helps: Reducing the complexity of your settings can improve calculation speed. The more settings and constraints you apply, the longer it takes to process lineups. Simplifying your settings can help the optimizer generate lineups more quickly.

By following these tips, you can optimize lineup calculation speed, ensuring that you get your lineups generated faster without sacrificing quality or strategic depth.
