I use a simple Oracle supplied PL/SQL Package (utl_tcp), which allows
one to open a tcp connection and to stream data over it. I experiemented
with flushing the connection send buffer after every message written to
the stream, but that did not change the result. As a test, I used a
simple 1..50 loop and send a short message with the loop counter in it.
In the client I received the messages out of order.
Is there a way of 'watching' the server processing the messages appart
from, say tcpdump? 
If I find the time tonight, I could test it by sniffing what the server
receives.. 

Thanks Bert
