I don't think there is sufficient information in the original mail. This 
may be a case where the TCP receive window size should be increased as 
it may be limiting through-put.  As regards the read and write locks - 
they are distinct locks and so shouldn't impact a concurrent reader and 
writer (and it wouldn't make sense to have concurrent readers or 
concurrent writers as SocketChannel is to a stream connection).
