This test was conducted with Perl script called printenv.pl that prints the CGI environment in SSL mode. The test was performed in SSL mode with the SSL session cache enabled. The goal was to saturate the cores on the server and find out the respective throughput and response time.
The following table shows the SSL Perl CGI test results.
