net/http: tls with large number of connections

[stomir]

Please answer these questions before submitting your issue. Thanks!

1. What version of Go are you using (go version)?
   go version go1.7 linux/amd64
2. What operating system and processor architecture are you using (go env)?
   go version go1.7 linux/amd64
3. What did you do?
   Start a HTTPS server with ListenAndServeTLS
4. What did you expect to see?
   Handling a lot of short connections
5. What did you see instead?
   Not handling a lot of short connections

So basically, the TLS handler is bad at handling large number of short connections,
and works a lot better when I removed the "tcpKeepAliveListener" from this line:
tlsListener := tls.NewListener(tcpKeepAliveListener{ln.(*net.TCPListener)}, config)

(I disabled KeepAlives with SetKeepAlivesEnabled anyway)

I'm afraid we need more information. Can you write a simple benchmark that demonstrates the problem and show how much faster it gets with the change you propose?

ok, this is pretty embarrassing

When I was working on the problem, at some point I was forced to update go version on the machine I was working on, and that was what actually helped me.
So this was probably some already resolved problem with handling cryptography in only one thread.
Sorry for wasting your time.
