Hi Chris;

I'm measuring the time taken to process a request as reported by
inspector-network in brave.

SSL time to process through tomcat is 11ms.

Same request for a smaller file using a java SSL socket is taking 50ms
.. like this:

public static SSLServerSocket getServerSocketWithCert(int port,
            InputStream pathToCert, String passwordFromCert,
            ServerSecureType type) throws IOException,
            KeyManagementException, NoSuchAlgorithmException,
            CertificateException, KeyStoreException,
            UnrecoverableKeyException
    {
            X509TrustManager[] tmm;
            X509KeyManager[] kmm;
            KeyStore ks  = KeyStore.getInstance(instance);
            ks.load(pathToCert, passwordFromCert.toCharArray());
            tmm=tm(ks);
            kmm=km(ks, passwordFromCert);
            SSLContext ctx = SSLContext.getInstance(type.getType());
            ctx.init(kmm, tmm, null);
            SSLServerSocketFactory socketFactory =
                    (SSLServerSocketFactory) ctx.getServerSocketFactory();
            SSLServerSocket ssocket = (SSLServerSocket)
                socketFactory.createServerSocket(port);
            return ssocket;
    }

I'm using the cert at https://db2dom.com

It's still a tenth of a second to process the request with this "hand
rolled" method, but it's several orders of magnitude slower, and I'm
trying to figure out why (I'm obsessive with response times).

Sincerely,

John
