Let's try it another way.
Topikstarter, how many orders per second do you need to open/execute, how much volume and what type of orders?

Many modern RAM disk programs support the ability to write the disk to a file on the HDD when the computer shuts down, and to recover the disk from the file when Windows starts up.

I don't need any multiple openings/closures or huge lots.
I just need a reasonable time to close/open a position when I issue a close/open command.
If the ping to the server will be, say, 30 ms, then the response time will be at the same level. That is, the time in one direction will be half of the ping plus two or three milliseconds. The number of deals per day is 10-20. And time is only an indirect indicator - the primary indicator is the change of price during this period of time, and if the price doesn't change drastically, the time plays a small role. But in calculation, we should focus on the worst case.
But you have to understand that during position changing I don't need any other events like incoming mail or disk operations or updating of applications on the system...or antivirus startup... I understand that it's not the job of the MT software developer to set up my windup .but no one even mentions that!!!
In principle, you have answered the question correctly.
OK, what "closing/opening time" of the position do you consider acceptable, why?
Maybe it is not only the execution time that is important here, but also the slippage?

Are you sure MT5 is one of them?
Of course, the slippage time as well. The thing is that I worked with MT4 and the execution of instant Exeqution, and accordingly I ran into something that sometimes the broker just didn't give permission to close a position and the closing command is synchronous and waits for an answer from the broker and if there is no answer, the system waits for it and nothing else is executed... That's what I am talking about - you don't want to get into those situations.
Great, did you know that commands can be spread across 8 threads via global variables(I think the author is talking about MT4)?
And to make the algorithm itself not hard dependent on server response?
OK, what do you think is an acceptable "close/open time" for a position, why?
I do not set requirements for the server, I just want to know this parameter in advance and take it into account when entering a position.
If this parameter is not specified, I focus on the average maximum time of deals.
If this parameter varies a lot I do not work with this broker. When I am pulled through by 10 points on EvroUsd after the set close command and set stop loss, of course I think it is too much and not possible to work with this broker.
What do you suggest?

....
What do you suggest?
Optimise the algorithm, change the DC, change the account type.
Everything else is bogus.
