  2. HTTP persistent connection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_persistent_connection

    However, the default connection timeout of Apache httpd 1.3 and 2.0 is as little as 15 seconds [6] [7] and just 5 seconds for Apache httpd 2.2 and above. [8] [9] The advantage of a short timeout is the ability to deliver multiple components of a web page quickly while not consuming resources to run multiple server processes or threads for too ...

    [19] [20] [21] Sometimes, this status code is also used as a response to a blocked request, instead of the more appropriate 403 Forbidden. [22] [23] 421 Misdirected Request The request was directed at a server that is not able to produce a response (for example because of connection reuse). 422 Unprocessable Content

  4. 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.

  5. Berkeley sockets - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berkeley_sockets

    Berkeley sockets originated with the 4.2BSD Unix operating system, released in 1983, as a programming interface.Not until 1989, however, could the University of California, Berkeley release versions of the operating system and networking library free from the licensing constraints of AT&T Corporation's proprietary Unix.

  6. Keepalive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keepalive

    Typically, TCP Keepalives are sent every 45 or 60 seconds on an idle TCP connection, and the connection is dropped after 3 sequential ACKs are missed. This varies by host, e.g. by default, Windows PCs send the first TCP Keepalive packet after 7200000ms (2 hours), then send 5 Keepalives at 1000ms intervals, dropping the connection if there is no ...

  7. Timeout (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeout_(computing)

    In the Microsoft Windows and ReactOS [2] command-line interfaces, the timeout command pauses the command processor for the specified number of seconds. [3] [4] In POP connections, the server will usually close a client connection after a certain period of inactivity (the timeout period). This ensures that connections do not persist forever, if ...

  8. Nagle's algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nagle's_algorithm

    The user-level solution is to avoid write–write–read sequences on sockets. Write–read–write–read is fine. Write–write–write is fine. But write–write–read is a killer. So, if you can, buffer up your little writes to TCP and send them all at once. Using the standard UNIX I/O package and flushing write before each read usually works.

  9. TCP congestion control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TCP_congestion_control

    There are several variations and versions of the algorithm implemented in protocol stacks of operating systems of computers that connect to the Internet. To avoid congestive collapse, TCP uses a multi-faceted congestion-control strategy. For each connection, TCP maintains a CWND, limiting the total number of unacknowledged packets that may be ...
