   @nickva oh, the security processing time is also interesting. At a code 
(deeper) level, I am not really an expert, so I'll need to defer to experts 
like you and Egor.
   
   What I can say is that we did observe the "admin" user login penalty 
initially (in both 2.3.x and 3.3.x) as part of the upgrade process. That gave 
me a pause initially.
   
   Eventually, through testing and some analysis, we found the solution of 
using "Proxy Auth" to bypass the penalty we saw with Basic, Cookie, and JWT 
auth. We were able to achieve largely same performance (in query RTD) with 
"Proxy Auth" as the older version without auth enabled.
   
   In fact, I should have disclosed for completeness previously that the 
performance/load results are based on admin "Proxy Auth" configuration. 
   
   I am sure there is a lot of nuances in this I still don't know, and this may 
not be for everyone, just want to share it.
