Ismael Juma created KAFKA-2431: ---------------------------------- Summary: Test SSL/TLS impact on performance Key: KAFKA-2431 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2431 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Sub-task Reporter: Ismael Juma
Test new Producer and new Consumer performance with and without SSL/TLS once the SSL/TLS branch is integrated. The ideal scenario is that SSL/TLS would not have an impact if disabled. When enabled, there will be some overhead (encryption and the inability to use `SendFile`) and it will be good to quantify it. The encryption overhead is reduced if recent JDKs are used with CPUs that support AES-specific instructions (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AES_instruction_set). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
