What I was trying to figure out was, how can we re-enable the trick
without hurting TSO? Could a solution be to simply look at the frame
size, and call tcp_send_delayed_ack if the frame size is small?

Maybe Solaris (and Windows?) have special-case handling for local TCP. It

But with the change we are discussing, could an ack now be sent even
sooner than we have at least two full sized segments? Or does
__tcp_ack_snd_check delay until we have at least two full sized
segments? David,

well, there are stacks which do stretch acks (after a fashion) that
make sure when they see packet loss to do the right thing wrt sending
enough acks to allow cwnds to open again in a timely fashion.

Its pretty bad on both. But most Java developers debug via localhost.
