From a Sierra Chart Engineering post on 2013-06-06:

"While we have not tested this, the ultimate configuration with IQ Feed would be to run 3 copies. One copy that connects IQ Feed and is not used for charting and 2 other copies using data from the IQ Feed copy."

1. Do you still believe this?
2. Is this unique to IQ Feed, or does it also apply to CQG Web API?
3. For the other 2 copies, I assume it makes sense to divide them up by symbol? i.e. Equity Index futures only in the 2nd instance and Energy futures only in the 3rd instance, for example. Or does this not matter?

Thanks

At this point in time really it is up to you to determine what seems to be best based on what you are doing. In general you want to distribute the processing load evenly among instances. Refer to:
