We study the optimization of a neutrino factory with respect to non-standardneutral current neutrino interactions, and compare the results to thoseobtained without non-standard interactions. We discuss the muon energy,baselines, and oscillation channels as degrees of freedom. Our conclusions arebased on both analytical calculations and on a full numerical simulation of theneutrino factory setup proposed by the international design study (IDS-NF). Weconsider all possible non-standard parameters, and include their complexphases. We identify the impact of the different parameters on the golden,silver, and disappearance channels. We come to the conclusion that, even in thepresence of non-standard interactions, the performance of the neutrino factoryhardly profits from a silver channel detector, unless the muon energy issignificantly increased compared to the IDS-NF setup. Apart from thedispensable silver channel detector, we demonstrate that the IDS-NF setup isclose to optimal even if non-standard interactions are considered. We find thatone very long baseline is a key component in the search for non-standardinteractions, in particular for |\epsilon^m_{\mu\tau}| and|\epsilon^m_{\tau\tau}|.
