Note that it's not Tomcat sending the ACKs, but the TCP/IP stack in the
OS running underneath the JVM. I wanted to point that out because it
means that Tomcat may be entirely unaware that data exists for reading
for some reason. If Tomcat itself were sending the ACKs, it would mean
that Tomcat was at least conceptually aware of the data, but refusing to
read it for some reason.
