Very long response time on query for Terms and Conditions

tornie

I am trying to use the Terms and Conditions API for finding the MIC for a list of RICS. The problem is that it takes a very long time before I receive a response. In average about 15 to 20 seconds.

Can I do anything on my end to improve response time?

I am using this endpoint:

Content looks something like this:

@tornie,

DSS is a product that focuses on breadth and depth of data, it is not a real time product tuned to deliver extremely short response times. 15 to 20 seconds to retrieve 4 fields for 32 instruments is in the realm of "normal" extraction times for such a request.

To optimize overall performance of your requests and applications retrieving data from DSS, you might be interested in reading the Best Practices and Limits document.
