Recent chart issues including slow loading, backfill problems and globex data problems are all related to hardware failures which the vendor (a major, reputable vendor) is not able to correct despite many attempts. We are switching to a different hardware platform on Monday to correct the problem.

The new hardware that handles the backfill for Globex will be in place and operational by Sunday 3pm Globex open.
 
Excellent work thanks IB.

And excellent work to you too Tums (I've been wondering when someone would get around to deleting some of those posts ... pointing out the self-evident truths about the moronic nature of some ET members does take one over the line a bit after all.)

ooh yeah excellent work!

your freakin backfill still sucks!

damn this pisses me off

I saw some significant improvement during some period of time. Unfortunately, I cannot tell that it's consistent, and, ironically, it's especially slow and/or even does not work at all, at the moments just then you need it badly the most :).

Still, I love them... :)
