TCP is stream oriented, not datagram oriented (that would be UDP). This means that the chunks which you receive are arbitrary prefixes of the respective rest of the stream (i.e. “packets” can be cut at any byte boundary). If you only send small TCP writes (<1480 bytes) with enough time between them, then each write may (!) be transferred in its own IP datagram—but that is not guaranteed. Therefore you’ll have to apply some kind of framing protocol (like the DelimiterFraming stage) on top of raw TCP.
