I'm confused. Your first sentence implies you don't want nagle but you're now complaining that nagle gets deactivated?!? Anyway, it depends. ssh never explicitly enables nagle but it disables it under several conditions. AFAICS (I'm not an expert of these internals) ssh disables nagle not only for interactive sessions but also on all secondary channels (X11 forwarding, port forwarding, etc.). So even if you're running in an non-interactive session, any other socket not used for the very control channel has nagle disabled. However, this is not a Cygwin issue. I suggest discussing this on the official ssh mailing list(s). > Anyone with a deep understanding of cygwin conform or deny this? This isn't a Cygwin issue AFAICS.
