Revision as of 07:15, 8 February 2014 edit 67.3.69.28 (talk) Replaced UDP/IP link with UDP link. TCP/IP is a whole stack, and I don't think a stack called UDP/IP. Most likely UDP was intended, as it and TCP are protocols on the same layer of that stack. ← Previous edit		Revision as of 15:47, 8 March 2014 edit undo Cnwilliams (talk \| contribs) Extended confirmed users 105,172 edits Disambiguated: UDP → User Datagram Protocol Next edit →
Line 34: Applications that expect real time responses can react poorly with Nagle's algorithm. Applications such as networked multiplayer video games expect that actions in the game are sent immediately, while the algorithm purposefully delays transmission, increasing [[Bandwidth (computing)\|bandwidth]] efficiency at the expense of [[latency (engineering)\|latency]]. For this reason applications with low-bandwidth time-sensitive transmissions typically use <code>TCP_NODELAY</code> to bypass the Nagle delay.<ref>[https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17868 Bug 17868 – Some Java applications are slow on remote X connections]</ref> Another option is to use [[User Datagram Protocol\|UDP]] instead. ==References==
