Is Nagle's algorithm disabled?

It's not disabled at present. I note that other RabbitMQ clients tend to switch it off (e.g., https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-java-client/blob/master/src/com/rabbitmq/client/ConnectionFactory.java#L492)

So, I think I shall

1. Switch it off in sockets; and,
2. Provide an option (to createConnection etc.) to keep it on

OK, fixed in 854b175.

It's not clear that disabling Nagle leads to a performance boost, so I've left it enabled by default. Disable it by providing {noDelay: true} in connection options; e.g.,

var ok = require('amqplib').connect('amqp://localhost', {noDelay: true});

That was quick. Thanks a lot!

No problem. It might take a bit longer to make it into a release, since I tend to wait until there's a few enhancements, or critical fixes, before I roll releases.
