stationglobals access from RAM

[mitulatbati]

Generally, how will StationGlobals accessed during runtime? Does TestStand access them each tim on the hard disk as the stationglobals.ini file, or is there a copy of this file in the memory?

The backround of my question is that I access some globals several thousand times in my sequence, and I mean it can save hard disk access, unlike access any file on the hard disk instead of station globals.

Globals are stored in ram. When the engine shuts down, they are persisted to disk. You can persist them at any time by calling Engine.CommitGlobalsToDisk().
