That's very interesting.  When we did our initial testing which resulted
in our postponing deployment of SPICE on the WAN, the performance was
generally acceptable except for the noticeable latency between actions.
It smelled exactly like Nagle was active.  Your proposed change might
inspire us to give SPICE another try on the WAN - John
