SSL Socket Performance

843811Mar 10 2003 — edited Jul 29 2003
I'm facing a problem while transmiting a large data file (pdf file ~8Megabytes) through SSL Socket.

In order to detect the problem I developed a simple Server/Client application with normal java sockets and the client application got only 4 seconds to receive the file.

With the same code using SSL Sockets the same file takes around 3 minutes.

Does anyone have a clue about SSL Socket i/o poor performance?

I'm using BufferedInput and BufferedOutput streams.

Thanks,
Jo�o Seixas.
