Feature Request - Varnish Cache Plus support

[cscd98]

Steps to reproduce

1. Install Magento from develop branch.
2. Install Varnish
3. Switch Magento to HTTPs. Varnish is bypassed.

Please consider support for Varnish Cache Plus for HTTPS connections:

Hi @craigcarnell VarnishPlus pricing starts at $31k US for a 3 node cluster is this something that merchants would be willing to pay over using Nginx for SSL termination -> Varnish -> Nginx FPM or Apache type of system architecture? What about Hitch instead?

^^^ No thanks lolll

NGINX on HTTP2 with the full TLS1.2 and HSTS implemetation + running REDIS 3.5 on unix socket.

= makes varnish almost as popular as the built-in firefox's cache ;)

< 0.75sec page load. Read; nearly instant

(Magento 2.1rc2 pffffff!!!)

@commcad do you have a link to more information?
@choukalos definitively no!

@commcad very cool; I'm carrying an epic to modularize/make it easy to change out caching engine (MAGETWO-40094)

Thanks for the feedback. Have either of you checked out Hitch - wondering your thoughts there?

@choukalos Configured nginx with http2/tls 1.2 + HSTS with Redis 3.2.1 for cache and session

Varnish is running for HTTP requests.

The basket take 12 seconds to load, with a single SKU in the basket. Not exactly earth shattering 2 second load time!

This is on a 2GB Intel + SSD cloud instance on Rackspace.

On my home page, non-HTTPS I am seeing the html return in 26ms using Varnish.

This is on Magento 2.0
