             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).
