We are going to have 10k-100k concurrent users (yeah... )
We are transfering EXE files (no not warez)
I am just trying to get some ideas.. I am concerned about all because I do
not know what to be concerned about :/
thanks

Subject: Re: Mod_ssl and how to reduce overhead
Hi,
A few words about intended usage would be of great help.
- How many concurrent users
- Type of transactions
- You really think the http front is going to be you bottle neck? or are
there back end systems that will pose a greater problem (I would think
so)
Why not just use a normal server as ssl accelerator? I know several SSL
accelerator "appliancees" that are just that anyway. Unless you have
specific keyhandling requirements (FIPS140-3 or something), using normal
server hardware is much cheaper.
regards
martin

Hello, I am trying to plan a system that can handle 10k-100k users.
I am only using apache w/mod-ssl
What should I look at to reduce overhead of bandwidth/cpu/mem?
At what point should I look at ssl accelerators?
Should I definitly look at clustering?
Also.. I ahve heard about ssl session key caching, anyone know how much
this will improve things?
Any good resources I can read?
thanks!
