Sorry for taking so long.  Here is a tcpdump.  The side on port 445 is
the SMB server using TCP_CORK.

You get the idea.

Anyway, now THIS is the interesting case, because we have two packets in
the answer, and you see the first half of the answer leaving immediately
(when I wanted the whole answer to be sent) but the second only leaving
after the .2 sec delay.

Oh I'm pretty sure it's not my application, because my application performs
well over ethernet, which is after all its purpose.  Also I see the
write, the TCP uncork, then a pause, and then the packet leaving.
