Is this renegotiation (in this case) triggert by the client or by the
server? I have here access to a few servers which require a client certs
and they don't support renegotiation (triggert by the client) right
after connect.

You are talking here about long sessions. A simple rate limit would be
okay. My wording was "remove client initiated renegotiation if possible"
I think. Also keeping a rate limit per connection would be nice then.
