Performance, already one of Caplin Trader's strong points, has been further improved with the introduction of a thread scheduler and a JavaScript pre-processor, while systems integrators will be pleased to learn that the new directory structure has been designed to support multiple parallel development streams and to facilitate easier upgrading to new versions.
