SSL TPS
Hi I'm in the middle of sizing a new pair of LB and tinkling about upgrading pairs in other DC after having decided to go https for a website.
Now i have 2 pairs of 6900 one pair of 5200 and one of 4200 , the TPS are slightly different here we go form 500 of the 6900 to the 20k of the 5200.
Fact is i do not really understand how to figure out what it is going to happen if i turn on https for the website:
here few numbers:
Max sessions on the http vip reached 64k Max new sessions per second form other stats sources reached 600 Just simply browsing the site with a loop on netstat i see sessions open each second going form 4 to 8 depending on the page I'm browsing.
I have been reading of session identifier and ssl ticketing etc...
Question is what TPS is:
60k ( number of max concurrent https connections) 600 (new web session per second) 600 x 8 (new web s/s multiplied by the max number of connections to my website) of maybe 60k divided by 8 ?
Thanks Paolo
