Benno Evers commented on MESOS-9339:
------------------------------------

This is partially resolved in Mesos 1.9 by https://reviews.apache.org/r/70749/ 
, which eliminates rDNS lookups for incoming TLS connections when setting 
`LIBPROCESS_SSL_HOSTNAME_VALIDATION_SCHEME=openssl`.

We can probably close this once we change the default for that ticket from 
`legacy` to `openssl`.

> SSL (TLS) peer reverse DNS lookup can block the event loop thread.

> We currently look up the peer hostname in order to perform certificate 
> verification while accepting SSL (TLS) connections. This blocks the event 
> loop thread in cases where it has to go over the network. We saw one issue 
> where a misconfiguration meant that this would block for 15 seconds.
> Once we add asynchronous DNS lookup facilities (MESOS-9338), we can use them 
> to avoid blocking the event loop thread.
> We should consider logging slow DNS reverse lookups and adding timing metrics 
> for them.
