Very interesting, I had a similar kind of problem (a network balancer that doesn't balance small tcp packages too well) and solved it by wrapping the TCP package in UDP. UDP was treated differently, although in overall switch and router manager it has a lower priority compared to other tcp packages, in normal usage it was faster.

Probably because UDP has less things to inspect and by this can be processed faster by all the network equipment in between, but to be honest it worked for me and the client wasn't interested in academic explanations and since this was a working solution I didn't investigated it any further.

Oh and a big thank you for PyGreSQL,! It has proven to be an extremely useful module for me (especially since I used to hop a lot between different unixes and Windows).
