    Hi,
    I've read in a book that when you open a tcp socket for SSL, you should
    always specify the no_nagle flag (aka no_delay) to disable Nagle's
    algorithm, otherwise, it would hurt SSL's performance.
    I've searched everywhere, google, newsgroups, and I can't find _why_
    would it hurt performance (just to fend off trivial replies: I know
    what Nagle's algorithm for TCP does).

    10x in advance for any help,
    Romano
