No, it does not call flush. Should I call it everytime a write is performed? If so, will this have a negative impact on performance? Even if it does, it seems calling flush may be unavoidable?
(defn connection-write [#^Socket conn #^bytes data] "writes data to the specified socket" (let [#^OutputStream ostream (. conn (getOutputStream))] (. ostream write data))) BTW, I sincerely appreciate you taking the time to help me with this.
