"I ran your IQFeed DDE vs. my broker vs. a level II window for some slow-moving options. I would see the level II quote change, then your feed update instantaneously. My broker's DDE, however, would take as much as 30 seconds to update. I am not chasing milliseconds, but half a minute is unacceptable." - Comment from Rob

When I compare my watch prices with those reported by StreetSmartEdge, and I realize that my trades are behind that of StreetSmartEdge. My processing must be falling behind.

Is there any way to ask the Connection Manager if my watch feed is delayed (trades are queued up for delivery), and if so, how big is the queue?

Yes, but not immediately. In the diagnostic's app, you can view the current queue size of any of the IQ connections, but Windows has an 8 MB buffer of its own that has to fill up before anything can be seen here.

You could find the offset of your time and the first timestamp at launch and compare that to the offset of future checks as a general guide, that may help you see what is going on, barring something like your system clock syncing and changing the baseline.
