As others have said, you can easily achieve sub 100 ms latency using C# on Windows. If your basic framework of processing incoming data and building order takes more than 1 ms, you are doing something wrong. So you have 99% of your allowed time for your business logic.

However, if your strategy primarily relies on speed, 100 ms is unlikely to be faster than your competition. Can you tell us how you decided on 100 ms at your time target?
