Fixed. I found this forum message from back in 2004.

Editing odbcserver.c and disabling nagel's algorithm (approx 40ms on Redhat
6) on the socket solved the problem. I wonder why this was never added to
odbcserver.c in the past?

I still see a packet being sent and a ack in my tcpdump inbetween the
initial query msg being sent and my resultset being sent back to erlang
which I have no idea what for? However overall performance has improved
greatly.

Linux. I have a simple test application which sends 100 queries from my
test gen_server via erlang odbc to sqlserver. When running this test on
Windows the test completes in about 200 millis however the exact same test
on Linux take about 4 seconds!

approx 3.6 seconds receiving messages from the socket?
