libcurl & nagle

Hi,

How does libcurl send commands? Does it batch up a command so that it
and its parameters are send in one go? Or should one keep nagle switched
on to reduce overhead? (talking ftp here)
Has anyone measured how much this overhead is in a typical libcurl ftp
session?
I'm looking into optimizing an appliance which does ftp sessions over
gprs. Disable nagle would reduce latency, (maybe: ) but if overhead
skyrockets no gain is made.

regards,

Folkert van Heusden
