200msec rings a bell: this is the delay windows waits before sending a
(delayed) ACK: normally, it prevents sending an ACK for every packet to
keep the total packet count low. It sends an ACK for every 2nd packet or
after a timeout of 200ms (lwIP also does this, this is called delayed ACK).
This suggests there is something wrong with the way data is sent, i.e.
the stack does not send two packets in a row without waiting for an ACK
(the sent-callback is called when an ACK is received). You should try to
call tcp_write() with a payload of more than 2 packets, but your
lwipopts.h must also be configured to allow this, regarding available
memory, mainly.

Ok. Than as Simon pointed out – the tcp_output avoids Nagle. I
followed the contrib/apps httpd example and without tcp_output calls I
needed TF_NODELAY.
Which is right? I would hope that an lwIP contrib example would show
the* correct* way to implement something.
tcp_output avoids Nagle?

It only avoids nagel if it is told so by the TF_NODELAY flag. And
tcp_output is always needed! I'm confused.
