Hi! What is the maximum number of threads that can hit IQConnect at any one time? For that matter, what would be optimal?

You should assume that each TCP/IP connection within my program consumes it own thread. I assume that IQConnect uses some sort of thread pool and a request / response queue, but I may be wrong. In either case I want to balance maximum throughput with long-term reliability.

Thanks....

Interesting question. But if you're dealing with sockets, I imagine the answer is "as many as you want (within reason)", at least with the history socket. Just open up another socket to 9100.

kweiss,

We have not explored what the max number of threads connected to IQConnect is, nor what is optimal. There are just too many variables to consider. As squirlhntr posted, you can use as many as is reasonable. Thanks!
