Fastest NYSE TICK Provider

I am of the impression from various threads that DTNIQ and tradestation have the fastest update intervals for the NYSE TICK. Does anyone disagree?

Here's my impression of the update intervals bases on various threads:

DTNIQ - 1 second
tradestation - 1 second
Esignal - 6 seconds
interactive brokers - 2 seconds
thinkorswim - ???
CQG - ???
Others - ???

Can anyone offer corrections or help fill in the blanks?

Gracias.

Hard to beat DTN.IQ for NYSE TICK......and they recently improved their infrastructure for this data (realtime data flow they report every second).

thinkorswim provides NYSE $TICK data, but the smallest aggregation period you can receive it in is a 1 minute chart. The one minute bar updates may be every 15 seconds. I'm not sure about Prodigio. I heard that Prodigio is providing the data in 1 second increments. But Prodigio was designed for automated trading and I think the account minimum is $35,000 dollars.
