Package: wget
Version: 1.13.4-3
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

I'm using the munin http_loadtime plugin which in turn uses wget to
measure the loadtime of websites. While this plugin ususally shows
results well below one second, on updated Debian systems the performance
drops considerably.

It seems to be realted to the switch from openssl to gnutls.

Quick:
wget -p --no-cache --delete-after http://www.scc.kit.edu/ 

Slow:
wget -p --no-cache --delete-after http://www.scc.kit.edu/ 

Quick:
wget -p --no-cache
--ca-certificate=/etc/ssl/certs/Deutsche_Telekom_Root_CA_2.pem
--no-check-certificate --ca-directory=/tmp/empty --delete-after
https://www.scc.kit.edu/

Even worse, options like --no-check-certificat (bad, I know) or
--ca-certificate=/etc/ssl/certs/Deutsche_Telekom_Root_CA_2.pem do not
speed up the process, but "--ca-directory=/tmp/empty" does.

It seems like gnutls is initialized for every request and upon
initialisation parses all certificates contained in /etc/ssl/certs

I file this as bug against wget, since --ca-certificate and
--no-check-certificate do not seem to have any effect, so I guess
initialisation of gnutls is defective.
