Chart Update Interval Chart Lag Question

View Count: 1600

Hi,

I notice when I have my chart at 100ms update interval the price lags in fast markets (like this mornings session on NQ) compared to other platforms I know of (which are not running at 100ms, rather I am using it as a yardstick to see if it lags). In slower markets it is ok. When I have the interval set at 175ms it seems to operate well (even faster than another platform I know of which is hardcoded to update at 250ms).

Is there anything I can do to allow SC to run at 100ms without the lag during faster markets? SC rarely runs above 12% of my CPU and I disable virus protectors.

My specs for my computer is an i7-6700K @ 4GHz and 32GB Ram. I also run a top level solid state drive. Not sure if the computer specs would be the bottleneck? I have been through help topic 30 but can't find anything in there which I think would help.

Any advise/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
