One small packet is allowed to fly, not depending on packets_out. So this mean if I do: write(100000*MSS) write(1) write(1) 2.4 can send 100000 packet with MSS large payload plus two packets with a payload of 1 byte even if during the two write(1) the previous packets were still out (not acknowledged yet). Classical nagle would send 100000 packet with MSS large payload plus 1 packet with a two bytes payload in the same scenario.
