OpenSSL does not implement TCP/IP, and network throughput issues
need to solved at the network layer. You may have path MTU issues,
or other networking problems. If smaller than the MTU writes are
done back to back, you may want to disable Nagle's algorithm via
the appropriate setsockopt() call (enable TCP_NDELAY).
You should be able to see the same throughput issues just sending
data (similarly chunked) in the clear without OpenSSL.
