I have a ZMQ application the sends a high rate of data over a TCP connection upon start up. The application runs fine on Windows 7 and Server 2003, but on XP it halts shortly after connection. The app is fine, just the connection seems to be stalled.

Someone mentioned there was a registry tweak for XP that corrects this but I cannot seem to find and info on this specific issue. (This is XP SP3)

I am sending from one XP machine to another with just an ethernet cable and no switches or routers in between.

Other traffic works fine between the two systems.

The problem seems to go away when I set TcpAckFrequency = 1 in the TcpIp parameters registry branch.
