With HTTP, I see client CPU at appx. 97%. However with HTTPS, it stays
at 53-55%.

I am doing something like this:-
self.conn = AsyncHTTPSConnection(self.URL, HTTPS_PORT)
self.conn.putrequest('POST', WEBSERVER_IP)
self.conn.putheader('Cookie', cookie)
self.conn.putheader('Content-Length', reqLen)
..
self.conn.endheaders()
self.conn.send(str.encode(reqest))
and AsyncHTTPSConnection class is something like this:-
class AsyncHTTPSConnection(client.HTTPConnection):
default_port = HTTPS_PORT
def __init__(self, host, port=HTTPS_PORT, key_file=None,
cert_file=None,
strict=None,
timeout=socket._GLOBAL_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT):
""" Init has same eparameters as HTTPSConnection. """
client.HTTPConnection.__init__(self, host, port, strict,
timeout)
self.key_file = key_file
self.cert_file = cert_file
def connect(self):
try:
log.mjLog.LogReporter ("Model", "info",
"AsyncHTTPSConnection::connect trying to connect... "+ str(self.host)
+ ":"+ str(self.port))
sock = socket.create_connection((self.host, self.port),
self.timeout)
sock2 = ssl.wrap_socket(sock, self.key_file,
self.cert_file)
self.sock = CBSocket(sock2)
except:
log.mjLog.LogReporter ("Model", "critical",
"AsyncHTTPSConnection::connect Failed to connect to the GWS")

Let me try to use this, I will come back with my observations.

Well good to know this. Do we have any date when this will be
available? I feel like contributing to this but kind of over occupied
with several activities right now.
