[original email was from Le Floch mikael - [mikael.lefloch@internet-quest.fr](mailto:mikael.lefloch@internet-quest.fr) ] Do you have any idea about the performance of Coppelia Fix Engine ? ex : XX msg/sec max ? Thank you ---

I wrote a very light weight fix engine that can send up to 5000 messages a second when the receiver is a program that only reads from a socket. With this test program, I’ve clocked Coppelia at 85 msgs/sec for a 10,000 message burst. I’m running a 2x700 MHz Penguin with 256MB RAM, LINUX 6.2. \> Do you have any idea about the performance of Coppelia Fix Engine ? \> \> ex : XX msg/sec max ? \> \> \> \> Thank you \> ---

Some benchmarks from a different FIX engine (CameronFIX) which i think might be slightly less expensive: PIII 600Mhz Laptop (Win 2000, JDK1.3) - 700 per second Sun 420R (450Mhz) (Solaris, JDK1.3) - 500 per second per CPU Dual PIII 1000Mhz (Win 2000, JDK1.3) - 4000 per second ---

What kind of FIX message did you use to test? Were they routed to any service provider? I meant if they have been saved to a database by the FIX engine. The performance looks too great. \> \> I wrote a very light weight fix engine that can send up to 5000 messages a second when the receiver is a program that only reads from a socket.

Yes. Agree. Would you, who offered the benchmark kindly before, pls let us know more detail about that? Just a short description of the process and What in it is ok. Thank you very much.
