That was my point to Herbert, Dave - that we can't
rely on Nagle - either we're triggering too early
and not utilizing TSO MTU or we're triggering too
late (waiting for the full TSO frame) depending
on whether we use standard or TSO mss..

We need some heuristic to do partial sends under
TSO. Is that what you are addressing?


thanks,
Nivedita
