What are your processing bottlenecks ?

August 2nd, 2007, 12:05 am

Dear forum members,I was wondering what are the technical capacity/throughput/processing bottlenecks that are currently limiting the firms you are working for from being more efficient.Considering all the processing elements starting from your desktop all the way down the chain to the exchange routers,- What are the processing elements that are giving you pain as far as throughput ?- Are you happy with the latency of your trading systems? Routers?- Can you quantify how reduction in latency will affect your profitability ?- What would be your wish list for processing power for the different devices/engines/processors you are using?Thanks,Elik

The answer is no. For a simple reason - I have nothing to sell. Had I something to sell I would have been much more excplicit about it.I am simply trying to identify infrastructure related problems in this business so that I could potentially use my skills to solve them and then perhaps have something to sell you. Isn't problem solving what this forum is about ? :-)Your feedback will be highly appreciated.
