Hello, I have developed a GnuTLS client/server app. The server and client live on the same machine and are using the system loopback for talking to each other.
It takes about 10 seconds to transfer 100MB (byte) of data from the server to the client. If I use SSH (SCP/SFTP) to transfer files through localhost, I see about 14MB per second speeds. This speed seems low, too, but shows my app is doing about as good as it can. Running iperf reports my loopback can get about 30 gigabits per second so there is no bottleneck there. Yes, I realize SSL connections have overhead, but with my system[1] I feel like data transfer should be faster than 10MB/second. Is what I am seeing normal (AES processing) or is there anything I can do to speed any of this up?
