> The class org.apache.http.nio.reactor.ssl.SSLIOSession is performing a DNS 
> lookup in line 125:
>         if (address instanceof InetSocketAddress) {
>             String hostname = ((InetSocketAddress) address).getHostName();
>             int port = ((InetSocketAddress) address).getPort();
>             this.sslEngine = sslContext.createSSLEngine(hostname, port);
>         } else {
>             this.sslEngine = sslContext.createSSLEngine();
>         }
> This lookup is not necessary to create the SSL engine (the method without 
> parameters works the same), and it causes performance issues if the DNS 
> server configured is not very fast. In my case, using a single thread, when 
> receiving 50 requests at the same time, the SSL handshake takes more than two 
> minutes and the clients are timing out. Checking the java thread stack, the 
> thread is always stuck on this lookup, waiting for the DNS server which 
> sometimes takes around 4 seconds to answer.
> When not using SSL there's no lookup so everything works.
> If this lookup makes sense in some cases (I don't know much on SSL 
> internals), maybe there should be an option to disable the lookup
