After a few wasted hours hunting down the reason for slowness during a
TLS handshake that turned out to be because of TCP_NODELAY not being
set, I think we have enough motivation to toggle the default for this
option. We now enable TCP_NODELAY by default and allow applications to
switch it off.
This also makes --tcp-nodelay unnecessary, but --no-tcp-nodelay can be
used to disable it.

You'll find a mix of various documentation in this directory and
subdirectories, using several different formats. Some of them are not ideally
for reading directly in your browser.
If you rather see the rendered version of the documentation, check out the
curl web site's documentation section for
general curl stuff or the libcurl section for
libcurl related documentation.
