I expect we'd see more liquidity on MtGox if they figured out how to write a matching engine. I would never add liquidity on a venue that routinely takes hours to process orders and cancels.

I have had a theory that most traditional matching engines can get away with lower latencies because they can multicast their marketdata.
It seems like sending out all marketdata events to each connected user over a tcp connection is bound to be problematic.
Perhaps they will add a collocation site where active Market Makers could receive multicasted marketdata with much lower latencies.
