It's a direct violation of RFC793, which expects one ACK for every two
segments:

4.2 Generating Acknowledgments

   The delayed ACK algorithm specified in [Bra89] SHOULD be used by a
   TCP receiver.  When used, a TCP receiver MUST NOT excessively delay
   acknowledgments.  Specifically, an ACK SHOULD be generated for at
   least every second full-sized segment, and MUST be generated within
   500 ms of the arrival of the first unacknowledged packet.
