------------------------------------------

Apologies for the huge images (thumbnail functionality doesn't seem to be working).  If more detail or testing is needed, let me know and I'll be happy to provide more.

> Throughput latency & throughput achieved via cassandra-stress is dramatically impacted when using SSL (about 5-6x).
> !bench-graph.png!
> I haven't done much analysis of this yet, but one observation is that I do notice a dramatic increase in context switches while running with SSL on the server side.  In the charts below, the left-most data in a chart represents running without SSL, and the right-most data represents running with SSL.  You'll observe that on the C* node that while the CPU utilization is down when running stress with SSL, the context switches are higher.
> !cpu_metrics.png!
> Attached is [^ssl-bench.tgz] that includes output for each run, the parameters used and an html file that is the output of running stress with [CASSANDRA-7918].
> If you need some ready made keystore / truststore files to work with, some can be found [here|https://github.com/datastax/java-driver/tree/2.1/driver-core/src/test/resources].
