Not a small step, that's basically what all the workarounds in this thread aim to do indirectly. That is the fix for the problem.
I went onto the test realm and it was laggy as sin compared to the Linux method. Obviously the PTR is going to be laggy because of all the kiddies and their T5 premades, but is there something which the linux method does (socat, etc) that turning off Nagle's doesn't? (TCP ACK Frequency defaults are different on linux, perhaps?)
