My estimate on bug 51002 was that sending all traffic through HTTPS would require the HTTPS cluster to be expanded by a factor of 10. Since the relevant metric is connection rate, not object rate, bits and upload would probably be most of that, since browsers open multiple concurrent connections to those servers during a normal request. So you'd be looking at maybe 80 additional servers. Maybe it would be worthwhile, but it wouldn't be cheap, either in terms of capital cost or staff time. Writing an nginx module to rewrite the URLs would probably be simpler than setting up a cluster of 80 servers. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
