I am using TCP/IP sockets for communications between two machines in a local network and it is used for real-time simulation purposes. I chose TCP because I needed a guaranteed delivery of the message payload. However, the ACK message of the TCP response waits 200ms to respond after the message is sent (for piggybacking purposes). This 200ms is too long for me and I was wondering if someone knew of some setting in the registry (or setsockopt) to have the ACK(s) sent immediately. To get around this for the time being, I am using UDP and implementing my own ACKing system. Thanks, Paul
