Apparently Greg Minshall proposed tinygram prevention alternations 15 years ago to fix the problematic interaction: https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-minshall-nagle-01

OSX seems to have implemented this in 2007 and be less/not sensitive to the issue e.g. http://neophob.com/2013/09/rpc-calls-and-mysterious-40ms-del... notes that there was no delay on OSX

alterations not alternations, of course
