Also, do follow our instructions regarding disabling CPU hyperthreading and power management. Another thing is to disable security and antivirus and anti-malware software.

One thing we want you to do is to look at the Windows Task Manager Details tab and see how many Threads you see for the Sierra Chart_64 process as compared to an earlier version where you do not notice the problem. Maybe it is an issue related to threads.

The same Sierra Chart that you use, is the same Sierra Chart, that is used in our server environments that processes massive amounts of data very efficiently and with no lag, and route orders in one fourth of a millisecond (~.000250 second). And it runs super efficiently. Of course we do have our servers well optimized at the hardware and operating system level.

We also do not use the newfangled demonically possessed Windows operating systems. We use Windows 7 and Server 2012. In some cases server 2016, but it is not clear whether there is a performance difference between Server 2012 and Server 2016. But we certainly stay the hell away from any newer OS versions.
