Can anyone point me to a document that compares SSL performance to non-SSL performance?
I recently compiled up modssl-2.6.1 against 1.3.12 on Win32, and I get speeds about
1/20th of what I get from the same server without SSL enabled. That doesn't seem
right.
I have read Mark Cox's document at <http://www.awe.com/mark/apcon2000/> , it is very
good, but it didn't solve my problem, as it doesn't talk about non-SSL. Although to
be fair, I am not compiling RC4 into openssl, so I am probably using 3DES, which will
hurt me a bit according to the above document.
I have enabled dbm SSLSessionCache, and I doubt if enabled a shared memory cache will
improve my performance greatly. (Especially since my real quick benchmark that I used
only made 1 keepalive connection.
The only thing special about my configuration is that I am using mod_auth_digest and
mod_dav.
Thanks.
