Applet in Internet Explorer slows over SSL

I have an applet running on an iPlanet server with a Verisign SSL cert. connecting to an Oracle Db.

Without the cert everything runs great in both IE and Netscape. But when I turn on the SSL, IE slows down to a crawl. While Netscape still runs great with no visiable slow down. I do not get any errors or exceptions.

Any ideas would be helpful.

Thanks
