Need a way to set tcpNoDelay on peer transport TCP network connections
----------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: AMQ-1143
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/AMQ-1143
             Project: ActiveMQ
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Transport
    Affects Versions: 4.1.0
         Environment: Windows XP Professional / JRE 1.5.0_11
            Reporter: Andrew Steele


I really like the peer transport in ActiveMQ.  It seems to be just the kind of 
setup we need.  However, we do have low round-trip latency requirements in some 
applications.  I was seeing unacceptably bad latencies (~200ms) for synchronous 
round trips.  I installed Wireshark and performed network analysis to see what 
was going on.  It appeared to be a Nagle algorithm / TCP ACK delay issue.  
Essentially, after the first message request and reply, the next request 
message may be delayed while waiting for a delayed ACK from the other broker.  
This should be resolvable by enabling tcpNoDelay.  However, the peer transport 
URI provides no mechanism to enable tcpNoDelay.  In fact, I went into the 
source code and found that the TCP network connecter specified in the 
PeerTransportFactory is hard coded to tcp://localhost:0.  Basically, I need a 
way to turn on tcpNoDelay in peer transport.
