I suppose it would be interesting to run this at the close on e.g. ES & NQ simultaneously and see if more congested trading conditions cause the latency profile you describe. My PC in Europe has acquired days of data for NQ100 future and sometimes the delay gets ugly (> 2s). I have also recently started acquiring data with a VPS located in Chicago. Fortunately the delay remains more acceptable when there is volatility, but there is yet an issue. I asked Support about this here: Sierra Chart Real-Time Data Feed is not fast enough. How to reduce lag ? Interestingly your data for ES show a similar packet pattern: the packets arrive with an 80ms heartbeat. It would be interesting if you could provide the first seconds of market open to check if you get more than 13 packets per second (which is the ultimate maximum I ever got), and what the delay looks like.
