AES GCM slow

2014-01-27 Thread Mark Christiaens
I wrote a little test client/server setup that transfers 100 MB of data over an SSL socket configured to use TLS 1.2 AES GCM (TLS_ECDH_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256). On my i7-4770 CPU @ 3.40GHz with OpenJDK 1.8.0-ea-b124 I get a transfer rate of around 5.2 MiB/second. I expected a higher speed.
