Hi,

I use netperf to test the performance of small tcp package, with TCP_NODELAY set :

netperf -H 129.9.7.164 -l 100 -- -m 512 -D

Among the packages I got by tcpdump, there is not only small packages, also lost of
big ones (skb->len=65160).

IP 129.9.7.186.60840 > 129.9.7.164.34607: tcp 65160
IP 129.9.7.164.34607 > 129.9.7.186.60840: tcp 0
IP 129.9.7.164.34607 > 129.9.7.186.60840: tcp 0
IP 129.9.7.164.34607 > 129.9.7.186.60840: tcp 0
IP 129.9.7.186.60840 > 129.9.7.164.34607: tcp 65160
IP 129.9.7.164.34607 > 129.9.7.186.60840: tcp 0
IP 129.9.7.164.34607 > 129.9.7.186.60840: tcp 0
IP 129.9.7.164.34607 > 129.9.7.186.60840: tcp 0
IP 129.9.7.186.60840 > 129.9.7.164.34607: tcp 80
IP 129.9.7.186.60840 > 129.9.7.164.34607: tcp 512
IP 129.9.7.186.60840 > 129.9.7.164.34607: tcp 512

SO, how to test small tcp packages? Including TCP_NODELAY, What else should be set?

Thanks!
