Update of /cvsroot/src/sbin/dump
In directory nb00:/tmp/cvs-serv9079

Modified Files:
        dumprmt.c 
Log Message:
Turn on TCP_NODELAY on the remote tape socket, from FreeBSD.  Here is the
commit message from Bill Fenner:

Turn on TCP_NODELAY on the remote socket, to turn off sender silly window
 syndrome avoidance.  The combination of SWS avoidance and ack-every-other
 causes low throughput if the block size divided by the MSS is odd (which
 is true with the default block size and MSS).
Turning on TCP_NODELAY disables the Nagle algorithm and sender SWS avoidance.
 The rdump request/response protocol can not invoke Nagle and cannot cause
 SWS, so this has no negative effects.

Also, put back the code that sets the TOS to "throughput", which seems to
have been erroneously removed during the Lite-2 merge.
