We should let auto corking on during 3.14 development cycle so that we can fix the bugs, and thing of some optimizations. auto cork gives a strong incentive to applications to use TCP_CORK/MSG_MORE to avoid overhead of sending multiple small segments. In the normal case, the extra delay is something like 10 us, so if an application is really hit by this delay, its a strong sign it could be improved, especially if auto corking is off. Lets wait the end of 3.14 dev cycle before considering this patch. Don't shoot the messenger :) Thanks ! -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe target-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
