Performance<br />

Donald Knuth: “Premature optimization is the root of all<br />

evil”<br />

– especially when based on guesses<br />

– Need clear requirements based on analysis<br />

The performance will heavily depend on the underlying<br />

network path<br />

Tuning performance of existing protocols is possible, e.g.<br />

– For example: TCP can be tuned to not wait for additional data<br />

after a socket writes by turning off Nagle<br />

– However, there is no reliable correlation between application<br />

writes and segment boundaries in TCP<br />
