I need a basic HTTPS server, without any web applications support,
so I've decided to use the listenTCP and listenSSL methods, together
with a twisted.web.http.HTTPFactory, a twisted.web.http.HTTPChannel protocol
and a twisted.web.http.Request handler.
I added a ServerContextFactory for SSL (like in echoserv_ssl.py example):
class ServerContextFactory:
def getContext(self):
"""Create an SSL context.
Similar to twisted's echoserv_ssl example, except the private key
and certificate are in separate files."""
print "Creating SSL context..."
ctx = SSL.Context(SSL.SSLv23_METHOD)
ctx.use_privatekey_file('serverkey.pem')
ctx.use_certificate_file('servercert.pem')
return ctx
if __name__ == "__main__":
from twisted.internet import reactor
reactor.listenTCP(8000, MyHttpFactory())
reactor.listenSSL(8043, MyHttpFactory(), ServerContextFactory())
reactor.run()
I'm testing this configuration with ApacheBench (ab), and I get some 800
requests/sec for HTTP, and only about 30 requests/sec for HTTPS. I now that
the ratio for HTTPS is about 60% of HTTP, so I was wondering if I'm
doing something wrong, or what is causing this problem.
Thank you.
