spiped 1.5.0 released



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Hi all,

I have just tagged the spiped-1.5.0 source tree and uploaded the release
tarball to the http://www.tarsnap.com/spiped.html .  The SHA256 hash of
the release tarball is
  b2f74b34fb62fd37d6e2bfc969a209c039b88847e853a49e91768dec625facd7

The only change between spiped-1.4.2 and spiped-1.5.0 is that spiped-1.5.0
attempts to set the TCP_NODELAY socket option on connections; this avoids
punishing latencies from TCP nagling.  While this can theoretically result
in an increase in bandwidth usage, half of the writes spiped performs are
1060 bytes and so the potential effect of extra TCP/IP headers, even in the
worst case, is not significant.
