Hi all,

Is there anyone around here, that performed a measurement what the impact is of 
doing http-encapsusation (http-proxy) with openvpn?

My case:
- Client & servers are on a (huge) LAN
- client is 2.4.6, servers are 2.4.7
- Setting up a vpn connection with UDP, doing a ping toward machine behind the 
server, I get a latency of 10-20mS
- Setting up a vpn connection with TCP and http-proxy, doing a ping toward 
machine behind the server, I get a latency of 200-340mS

I cannot imagine that the process of encapsulation and peeling out by the 
reversed proxy requires the same amount of time (extra 200++ mS) that is 
equivalent of a transatlantic round trip.

The reversed proxy, and the network around it are both beyond my control.
