Jetty uses the SSL implementation from the JDK, typically via SSLEngine. Turns out that the JDK SSL implementation is quite memory hungry, keeping at least one buffer of 17k around per connection. Jetty allocates some more per-connection objects on top of that, but I don't know the exact figure. Unfortunately the memory allocated by the SSLEngine is not controllable by Jetty. We typically suggest to offload SSL via something like HAProxy. -- Simone Bordet ---- http://cometd.org http://webtide.com http://intalio.com Developer advice, training, services and support from the Jetty & CometD experts.
