Hello sir~~ when I use ignition NJ Driver or FINS/TCP to read Omron PLC tags, the reading speed is very slow. When values of tags in PLC change, it takes 2-3s for ignition to refresh the latest values of tags. Is there any solution to this problem? The following figures show ignition gateway information when using NJ Driver and FINS/TCP to read Omron PLC tags respectively ![nj](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/b/2/b2ec09529634f38ef1adfc9b09d80947d34c6e38.png) ![fins](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/9/b/9b1c84e477911aae1a2cf54503d4a2e46fc19e8a.png) ---

thats some high overload. **reduce** the polling speed/ amount of stuff monitor, 1700/2000 seems way to much... anything above 100% is bad, and you are at 700% xd Your plc/connection cant handle this much requests at this speed ---

Tens of thousands is usually fine with my alternate driver. ---
