I would add that PutStringInSendBuffer and PutDataInSendBuffer are very useful when you have small data chunks that you want to send in a bigger one. That is make as possible as sure that the packets have maximum size.
for a:=0 to 80 do Socket.PutStringInSendBuffer(MyString); Socket.Send(nil, 0); // Will force the socket to try to send his buffer Contribute to the SSL Effort.
