[Mono-dev] SSL Channel implementation and SslServerStream

[pablosantosluac]

Hi again,

Well, looking into the ServerContext constructor: the code converts between 
the System.Security cert to a Mono cert. Ok, this calculation could be 
skipped if a server is launching threads with the same certificate. The 
performance hit "caching" this one is about a 50% (launching 350 client 
threads simultaneously).


I'll try to locate the next bottleneck
