Impact of SSL on Performance

When using HTTP over SSL, the overhead added by SSL on the overall request and response or throughput for a scenario is limited.

For scenario details, see Appendix A .

The graphs below illustrate the maximum throughput performance for scenarios with and without SSL for the given hardware. For more information, see Hardware Configuration .

For scenario and settings details, see HTTP Connector Resource .

Note: The numbers represented in the graphs are based on tests conducted in the performance lab for TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks™ 6.3.0. Results may vary according to the components installed, the workload, the type and complexity of different scenarios, hardware, software configuration, and so on. They can be reproduced only under the exact environment and workload conditions that existed when these tests were performed.
