Thanks to the group and Helge for the proposed solution.

where latency is not important. If I was simply trying to move a large
amount of data and didn't care about latency I probably wouldn't send out a
bunch of small messages. I use oneway because I need each tiny piece of
data to arrive as soon as possible after it is generated. If this is the
normal reason then I could make a case for TCP_NODELAY being the default.
