+ <p>
+ Fix some potential buggy behavior in how ticks are sent
+ on inter node distribution connections. Tick is now sent
+ to c-node even if there are unsent buffered data, as
+ c-nodes need ticks in order to send reply ticks. The
+ amount of sent data was calculated wrongly when ticks
+ where suppressed due to unsent buffered data.</p>
