  6. Twisted (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twisted_(software)

    Twisted is designed for complete separation between logical protocols (usually relying on stream-based connection semantics, such as HTTP or POP3) and transport layers supporting such stream-based semantics (such as files, sockets or SSL libraries). Connection between a logical protocol and a transport layer happens at the last possible moment ...

  9. TCP delayed acknowledgment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TCP_delayed_acknowledgment

    Linux 2.4.4+ supports a TCP_QUICKACK socket option that disables delayed ACK. [2] For example, consider a situation where Bob is sending data to Carol. Bob's socket layer has less than a complete packet's worth of data remaining to send. Per Nagle's algorithm, it will not be sent until he receives an ACK for the data that has already been sent.
