Dukascopy Wiki https://www.dukascopy.com/wiki/#Strategies
We can read about Local Run and Remote Run
Image

I developed a small program which open trade and calculate time (in milliseconds) for open it (TestTimeExecution.java)

I live in Siberia, so far from Europe and from Dukascopy servers. Result from my workstation (Local Run)
Image

Result from Dukascopy server (Remote Run)
Image

Also I developed a simple CPU benchmark (for test calculations). It based on Standard Whetstone algorithm (Benchmark.java)
Result from my workstation (Local Run)
Image

Result from Dukascopy server (Remote Run)
Image

Finally we can see Remote Run vs Local Run no gives advantages. What about calculations (CPU benchmark) Remote Run is very bad even using one thread calculation. And it break program when I try to use multiple threads.

I'm waiting your comments.

I think the wiki is misleading. The purpose of the Remote run was (is?) to have an uninterrupted environment, instead of a low latency environment.
But let's wait on an 'official' response from support.

Since there are many strategies running on the remote server strategy may experience some latency. Please note that there is also CPU usage restriction for each remote strategy.
So remote server mainly provides redundancy in case internet connection is lost or local process gets stopped.
