The conclusion is that the Chart Update Interval is more faithfully being followed with Sierra Chart timers as compared to Windows timers. With higher performance systems, the charts are being driven, with much more frequent updates which is a good thing! So this is what causes the increase CPU usage, more frequently updating charts. This is a good thing because sometimes we have reports, not often but sometimes, of users with very powerful systems noticing slow updating of their trading charts or Trading DOMs with no explanation. So obviously, Windows timers are simply unreliable and not triggering when they should be. So basically there is no reason for us to bring back windows timers. They are simply unreliable like so many other things in Windows. This is what we can see quite clearly. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.
