32 terminals, all works fine, CPU load is 8%. During NFP - horrible lags. why is that?

Hi, I have 32 MT4 on one dedicated VM, it collects tick data from different brokers. CPU and memory load is <10%. During news release such as NFP, tick data is lost, it simply is not recorded, and all terminals suffer horrible lags. Does anyone has an idea why this is happening

what is the best way to run many MT4 on one machine?

Hi, If I want to run 20+ MT4 terminals on one machine, will the number of cores help?

I lack IT knowledge to answer
