Topic: Azure VPS Server Response Time

Popov -- do you monitor the "Server response" times as reported in the upper-left corner of the chart window?

I'm using 5 different brokers and the these times used to vary between 230 - 600 milliseconds.  I started to pay attention again today and noticed all accounts are now > 2000 milliseconds.  I'm not claiming this is a problem, but since all EA Studio trading passes through that server then I was wondering whether its performance and load are actively monitored and whether there is a threshold response time that would cause you to be concerned.

I know that Azure VPS servers are pricey -- is the cost becoming an issue?

Re: Azure VPS Server Response Time

This service is hosted temporarily on Azure.

I'm going to move it to my main hosting provider - WebFaction. It is faster than the Azure servers and more cost effective.

I'll do the migration on September.

Re: Azure VPS Server Response Time

Hi Popov,

Is it possible to remove the server from the code? You know, just merging the whole collection into one single mq4 file.

So we can see the whole portfolio backtest result on mt4 tester and don't need to depend on server anymore

It is possible but is a lot of work. It will happen one day.
