Bloomberg suggests getting one ticker at a time.
Works for me.

Hello, what is the most efficient way to download a large panel of daily
tick data with RBloomberg?  Is it better to download data for a large number
of tickers for just one day?  Or is it better to download data for a single
ticker over many days?  What is the maximum combination of number of tickers
and number of days before the computer blows up on me (assuming an average
power desktop pc)?  By way of example, I am looking to download tick data
for about 500 tickers over about 120 days.  Thank you very much!  Geoff
