Here's how to emulate TCP_CORK using TCP_NODELAY, from [0]:
- unset the TCP_NODELAY flag on the socket
- Call send() zero or more times to add your outgoing data into the Nagle-queue
- set the TCP_NODELAY flag on the socket
- call send() with the number-of-bytes argument set to zero, to force an immediate send of the Nagle-queued data
Wow, that's not awkward at all.
