I agree with Peter crypto algos on routers have stronger keys usually located in much harder to access area than anything I've seen available on the software side Then again if your a DoD shop and you need C2 security RSA's process of flipping algos and keysize every n random minutes beats em all.. +1 Martin -- ********************************************************************* This email message and any files transmitted with it contain confidential information intended only for the person(s) to whom this email message is addressed.

Why not? I'm gonna say that's quite a bit of myth here. If SSL is important, get a cheap SSL enabled router. Doing software SSL is waste of CPU power and impacts the server's stability. Anyone that has a lot of HTTPS traffic shouldn't be using software SSL in my bias opinion. If you are so desparate that you need software SSL, as remy says, there's APR. no need to stick apache httpd infront. my bias 2 bits on this topic peter On 6/1/06, Remy Maucherat <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > On 6/1/06, Michael Echerer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Danny Lee wrote: > > > Hi guys! > > > > > > I wondering if it's really so good to use Tomcat behind "a real" web > > > server like Apache or IIS. > > > > > > > In case you have a lot of HTTPS traffic, you'll find that having Apache > > handle SSL is faster than the Java implementation that Tomcat can offer. > > > > IMHO for HTTP traffic performance is "almost" comparable as long as you > > don't need 100% perf, but for HTTPS Apache is definitely better already > > with not so many concurrent requests. > > Great post.
