Using SSL

Post by SeeCwriter »

In another thread pbreed mentioned that when using SSL it can take up to 10-seconds for the accept function to return with an fd. As I've thought about it, that seems unworkable, but I may not be understanding correctly.
The MOD5441X module we use serves up a webpage. And that page updates itself twice a second. Each update opens and closes a tcp connection. If it's taking seconds just to make a tcp connection, that will have a seriously negative impact on the webpage. Do I understand this correctly?
