# NAME
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
CURLOPT_TCP_NODELAY - the TCP_NODELAY option
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
~~~c
|
||
|
|
#include <curl/curl.h>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_TCP_NODELAY, long nodelay);
|

# DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Pass a long specifying whether the *TCP_NODELAY* option is to be set or
|
||
|
|
cleared (1L = set, 0 = clear). The option is set by default. This has no
|
||
|
|
effect after the connection has been established.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Setting this option to 1L disables the Nagle algorithm on connections created
|
||
|
|
using this handle. The purpose of this algorithm is to minimize the number of
|
||
|
|
small packets on the network (where "small packets" means TCP segments less
|
||
|
|
than the Maximum Segment Size for the network).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Maximizing the amount of data sent per TCP segment is good because it
|
||
|
|
amortizes the overhead of the send. However, in some cases small segments may
|
||
|
|
need to be sent without delay. This is less efficient than sending larger
|
||
|
|
amounts of data at a time, and can contribute to congestion on the network if
|
||
|
|
overdone.
