> I think we should switch the default for the IPC client and server NODELAY
> options to true. As wikipedia says:
> {quote}
> In general, since Nagle's algorithm is only a defense against careless
> applications, it will not benefit a carefully written application that takes
> proper care of buffering; the algorithm has either no effect, or negative
> effect on the application.
> {quote}
> Since our IPC layer is well contained and does its own buffering, we
> shouldn't be careless.
