Did you happen to notice whether your "Market data" indicator button (bottom right side of TWS workspace, next to the clock) changed from green background color to yellow or red? That's one way to tell.
Yes there were interruptions on the feed. This newest TWS standalone has problems. Some of the hotkeys won't work. Level II quotes stick and you've got to log out and back in to unstick. And the two day charts crash and don't auto refresh.
I am using the latest version. It lagged data on a couple symbols for me today as well.
I use Ensign and the auto log in used to work well. I have Ib logging off and Ensign logging it back in. Not anymore! This latest version has some bugs.
Another thing, I made the mistake and opened up optiontrader and looked at the new analytic. WOW does that slow things down! It was sucking down resources big time.
I think it was green. Did not have option anything open.
I was lucky that both times I was flat. Was talk to a friends to take a break since I traded more today.
