Sorry. I found this today. Please sent a PR to record your credit.
Don't worry, this isn't particularly urgent, it's an optimization only. I think it's actually a bit more difficult to do then just setting other options, because it needs to be set each time data is received from the socket (I think, not certain actually). Not yet sure if I'll have the time to submit a PR for this, I opened the issue primarily so that we wouldn't forget about this altogether.
(This was previously mentioned on #6, recording this as a separate issue so that we don't lose track of it.)
It might be useful to enable TCP_QUICKACK by default in network-run; see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10608356 by John Nagle (he of TCP fame) himself.
Note that
TCP_QUICKACK
at least on Linux is a one-time thing; from the man pageThis is not a blocker for us by any means, merely an optimization.
