Description
Ensures tcp_nodelayack is not set to 1 on AIX, users may experience very slow performance between client and Forms server.
Risk
Not having tcp_nodelayack set on AIX can cause severe performance degradation between the Forms thin client and the Application Server. As an example, navigating between items may have long delays.
Recommendation
Set tcp_nodelayack as described in Document 403443.1 if slow performance is being experienced between the Forms thin client and the Application Server. Note that this setting might adversely affect other applications installed on the machine, so consult the AIX system administrator before implementing this change.
