Thanks Manuel, I will take a look at it. I do have complete control over the
box this is running on, so I can rebuild PHP with support for CURL and
OpenSSL if necessary. My main concern is having a robust approach that is
fast and efficient under a high load.

I need to interface with a partner's XML API and they require that the XML

that will be the most reliable under heavy load. Thanks for any advice.
SSL (HTTPS) support is a little tricky. Some hosts may or may not
provide curl or openssl PHP extensions that are necessary to support SSL.
You may want to try this popular HTTP client that makes SSL requests
figuring automatically whether it is possible to use curl or openssl for
you. The usage of the class is the same regardless which of the
libraries is available.
It already comes with an example to make XML HTTP POST requests:
