_deferred_acks_max Parameter

Description

Specifies the maximum number of TCP segments received from remote destinations (not the same subnet) before an acknowledgment (ACK) is generated. TCP segments are measured in units of maximum segment size (MSS) for individual connections. If set to 0 or 1, no ACKs are delayed, assuming all segments are 1 MSS long. The actual number is dynamically calculated for each connection. The value is the default maximum.
