(OS X Mavericks) If you enable "System Preferences / Accessibility / Mouse & Trackpad / Trackpad Options / Enable dragging", you will be able to "double tap to drag", but there will be an annoying delay before a single tap.
I know the delay is needed for distinguishing single/double tap. However it is too long compared to a Windows machine.
Is there any way to customize the this delay parameter?
BTW: BetterTouchTool has an experimental alternative tap dragging, but it doesn't work perfectly (no edge motion, not working in launchpad, etc)...

It's 2020 and there is still no known option to control that delay. The proposed workaround might be enabing three-finger motions but that's not exactly the same experience.
