I need some help in configuring certificates and https

Here is the scenario:

1. Application is Liferay (running in tomcat without Apache) which also has Web 
Services.
2. There are clients (.NET, ruby..) which access these services after logging 
is as a special user.
3. Currently both authentication and data transfer between Liferay and clients 
is also on https (for the web services part).
4. I want to configure so that clients authenticate using https but the data 
transfer is over http. I read somewhere that https is approc 30% overhead 
compared to http.

a. Can we do this with just tomcat? What configurations should I make in tomcat 
and/or apache? Can we do this without Apache in the picture?
b. What changes do we need to make in the clients?

I am a new to Apache configs and will appreciate any help.

Thanks,
kc
