With our latest update, Xmanager Enterprise Build 0769 and Xshell build 0788, we’ve included Nagle’s Algorithm for user who have network congestion issues.
In TCP/IP networks, applications often transmit data in 1 byte size. Now let’s say you need to send 10 bytes of data considering this 1 byte/packet transmission rate. You will have to send 10 separate packets each containing a header several times bigger than the actual required information. This can lead to network congestion and deterioration.
By enabling Nagle’s Algorithm, transmission is delayed while the data is combined, and then sent all at once. This can greatly increase bandwidth efficiency by reducing the number of packets being sent over the network.
To enable Nagle’s Algorithm, navigate to Properties from the File menu.
