SP3 - Secure portal SSL performance improvements ?
Portal Gurus,
One of the major enhancements I was looking for in SP3 was an improvement in
the SSL gateway performance. However testing I've done so far only shows a
30% improvement in Requests/second and in open mode SP3 actually seems a
little slower than SP2. I realize there are environment and specific
workload factors at work, but under near identical conditions comparing SP2
to SP3 secure mode, the performance increase wasn't what I had hoped for.
I followed the tuning instructions in the SP3 release notes and noticed a
small improvement, ~5%, and was wondering what other people are seeing.
Given the numbers I'm seeing I have to wonder if using SSL is really viable
for a busy portal site.
Anyone seeing a big improvement in SSL performance with SP3 ?
Cheers,
