I get a slow one (3-5 minutes) about every 15 to 20 trades. All others are virtually instantaneous, 1-5 seconds. There is some reason that I never see fills in between these time ranges. I think its software.<i/>

I too have observed this bimodal distribution of trade latencies. This is telling us something important about how the system is actually structured. Any hypotheses that might explain this observed behavior?
