method Socket.prototype.setNoDelay

Usage in Deno

```typescript import { Socket } from "node:node__net.d.ts"; ```
Socket.prototype.setNoDelay(noDelay?: boolean): this
Enable/disable the use of Nagle's algorithm. When a TCP connection is created, it will have Nagle's algorithm enabled. Nagle's algorithm delays data before it is sent via the network. It attempts to optimize throughput at the expense of latency. Passing `true` for `noDelay` or not passing an argument will disable Nagle's algorithm for the socket. Passing `false` for `noDelay` will enable Nagle's algorithm.

Parameters

optional
noDelay: boolean = true

Return Type

this
The socket itself.
