Flatten execution delay

Hi - I am getting a delay when I click my flatten button of 2 to 3 seconds once it is clicked. I have copied my trade log below so you can see the executions times. I am running the trading DOM as a sub instance with no other charts running in the sub instance. I have cleared all recent and current bid/ask volume, chart interval update set to 50, remote buffer delay set to 75 and max depth level set to 50. It seems to be losing time on the confirmation of the cancelling as shown below. Flatten action settings set to flatten and cancel. Any help on this would be appreciated.

So you have order confirmations enabled?

Not sure what we are supposed to tell from the log above. It does not have information that is useful. There are no timestamps.

No i don't have order confirmations enabled. I will send over my trade activity log file with the timestamps. I am experiencing about a 2 to 3 second delay between when I press the flatten button and when i get flattened. The delay looks like in the log is happening waiting on the response from Teton for cancelling.
