Summary:We report on recent improvements of the Atacama Pathfinder Experiment Control System (APECS) to cope with the ever increasing data rates and volumes. Also the very wide bandwidths of current instruments required switching to vectorized atmospheric opacity corrections using parallelization to speed these computations up for the quasi-realtime online pipeline. We look ahead at the coming years of continued APEX operations.
