Are there any protocols/standards on top of TCP optimized for high throughput and low latency?

Are there any protocols/standards that work over TCP that are optimized for high throughput and low latency?

The only one I can think of is FAST.

At the moment I have devised just a simple text-based protocol delimited by special characters. I'd like to adopt a protocol which is designed for fast transfer and supports perhaps compression and minification of the data that travels over the TCP socket.
