Portable APIs

  • TCP_NODELAY: Disable Nagle's algorithm (coalescing of small packets until an ACK is received or a retransmission triggered). See the Linux APIs page for interactions with TCP_CORK on that platform.

Tuning

TCP auto-tuning on Linux

TCP auto-tuning on FreeBSD

With TCP send buffer auto scaling and the default values below it supports 20Mbit/s at 100ms and 10Mbit/s at 200ms. Both read and write buffer are auto-sized.
