What is the expected response time in an adhoc request for 1000 instruments?

Best Answer

  • This is a difficult query, because response times vary based on many
    parameters !

    Among them are:

    • the number of instruments,
    • the number of data
      fields,
    • the server load,
    • the template (i.e. the type of data).

    The number of data fields could be anything from a
    few to several hundred.

    The server load will obviously be heavier just after
    market close.

    There is also a dependency on the data template. For instance a Time Series extraction is
    slower.

    For these reasons it is impossible to give a meaningful number, but just to give you a feeling, do not expect a response in a few seconds, this will take some minutes ...

    Here is one test result we can give you: for an End of Day extraction, with 10 fields, 1000 instruments, we
    measured a time of 22 ms per instrument.
