Did Credit Suisse say why their application does not disable the Nagle algorithm using the TCP_NODELAY socket option? If the application source is not available then they can write a Netfilter module to set the socket option (I wrote a similar module to select the TCP algorithm for binary programs, I owe the netdev people a similar patch which uses the routing table).

They do disable Nagle and do just about everything else they can possibly think of. But they still run into problems.
