Bug Description
Stellarium 0.13.2:
When sending slew commands to a telescope control server over a TCP connection, the operating system may decide to artificially delay the transmission, in order to fill up TCP buffers more and not cause lots of tiny network packets. More details here: http://
For a quick, no-delay transmission, it would be nice to disable the Nagle algorithm on TCP connections.
Attached is a patch that does just that.
With this patch, telescope control over TCP becomes much snappier (essentially instantaneous).
