I doubt this calculation is a bottleneck. Have you done any performance profiling? How much throughput are you getting at the moment? How much throughput are you getting with this handling code removed?

Anyway, a bit of maths gives:

abw = NewPrice / io.LastPrice;
if ( abw >= 1.015 || abw <= 0.985 ) { // do whatever }

Also, if the SymbolNr values are sequential ( or at least small ), you could use an array of InstrumentObject with SymbolNr as the index.

Thank you for your input. The Calculation of the Percentage is a good one Smile | :)

I tested now the calculation with this different algos:

private void StreamEventHash(int SymbolNr, float NewPrice, float Volume, DateTime Zeit_kurs)
       {
            abw = (((OSObject)osHash[SymbolNr]).LastPrice - NewPrice) / (((OSObject)osHash[SymbolNr]).LastPrice / 100);
            if (abw >= 5)
            {
            }
       }
       private void StreamEventHashNewObject(int SymbolNr, float Kurs, float Volume, DateTime Zeit_kurs)
       {
           OSObject oo = ((OSObject)osHash[SymbolNr]);
           abw = (oo.LastPrice - NewPrice) / (oo.LastPrice / 100);
           if (abw >= 5)
           {
           }
       }
       private void StreamEventHashNewObjectAs(int SymbolNr, float Kurs, float Volume, DateTime Zeit_kurs)
       {
           OSObject oo = osHash[SymbolNr] as OSObject;
           abw = (oo.LastPrice - NewPrice) / (oo.LastPrice / 100);
           if (abw >= 5)
           {
           }
       }

I use the stopwatch class for this. I found out that the first one is the slowest Smile | :)

So there is performance optimization possible.

But I can't tell which one of the other 2 algos are faster, because when I change the order the voids are tested, different results occur. It seems that the one which is tested first is always a little bit slower. I am about to figure out how to get reliable results, maybe to run the tests multiple times in random order.

And than I have to find out what your proposed algo

abw = NewPrice / io.LastPrice;
if ( abw >= 1.015 || abw <= 0.985 ) { // do whatever }

will do

I'd try multiplying by 1/100 instead of dividing by 100, the optimizer is not exactly smart but it will always collapse constants such as "1/100" - and seeing as an fdiv is like 15 times (depends on the divisor) as slow as an fmul and not even pipelined, the difference could be huge.

Thank you very much for your input.

Anyway, I found out that 1,000,000 triggers only take appr. 500 ms. So this can't be my bottleneck Frown | :-(

That's not exactly useful for you to know, but if I hadn't said it you might be waiting for my reply..
I hope someone else here knows more about that kind of thing

It seems that the bottleneck is on the DataProvider APIs side. If I put more than 50.000 instruments in the datastream, then somehow sometimes the events aren't triggered anymore. This is my main problem.

BUT: I now that this has somehow also to do with CPU power. This 'disconnects' happen much more often on systems with slower CPU's. So I think there should be a possibility to improve my App - but I don't know where. I already tried to raise the priority of the DataProvider Client Process - no result.

It seemes that somewhere in the system, if the traffic is high enough, there is a traffic jam causing the strange behaviour. Should I change something in the Network Preferences? But what?

This will not work, since you send this key strokes to your application only, and not on global level.

Have a look at here[^], it is in VB, but i'm sure you will manage to make in in C# in matter of seconds.

By getting a beginners book on C#, reading through it carefully and attempting all of the examples. Smile | :)

Means it is such a basic function that you should be able to work out how to do it for yourself.

There are plenty of free E-books for beginners on the internet e.g. C# Yellow Book[^].

No, it means that you are so far lost if you can't do this based on what you've been told, that there is just no point in talking to you. Not to be rude, but because if you can't work it out based on what you've been told, you're not going to understand anything we say anyhow.
