I'm running applications that send and receive timestamp as data to
calculate latency between the client (32915) and the server (s_name_1).
The client connect to the server and receive timestamp from the server
and then, every 20 seconds, the server send ping message (Len=18) to
the client and the client reply ping ack message (Len=18) back to the
server. The server sends 50 timestamps to the client every 50
milliseconds.

The problem is after the client reply ping ack message back to the
server (see frame number 42014), the client will delay TCP ACK package
that sent to the server for around 40 milliseconds (see diff time
between frame number 42042 and 42041); therefore, the server need to
wait for around 40 milliseconds before sending next timestamps to the
client. Please see the output from the Ethereal below for more
information:

I already used TCP_NODELAY option to disable Nagle's algorithm in TCP
layer, however, the problem still happen; the server did not send the
next timestamps to the client until it receive TCP ACK from the client.

From, above situation, is it possible that the TCP_NODELAY option can
not resolve the problem? If it is possible, how can I resolve the
problem?

PS. My applications are running on the AS 3.0, kernel 2.4.21-27.

option to disable Nagle's algorithm in TCP layer, however, the problem still happen; the server did not send the next timestamps to the client until it receive TCP ACK from the client. From, above situation, is it possible that the TCP_NODELAY option can not resolve the problem? If it is possible, how can I resolve the problem? PS. My applications are running on the AS 3.0, kernel 2.4.21-27.
