I use UDP for the transport, and it uses OpenSSL in th= e base for the crypto. In this case, AES-128-CBC.

This could make a significant difference. I've he= ard rumours before that the newer version is a lot slower but I've never ha= d cause to believe it. Quick search brought up https://www.stunnel.org/pipermail/stunnel-users/2013-April/004176.html so I'd second using same program versions and only change OS or vice versa = (so we aren't comparing apples to minced meat ;-) Best regards, Holger __________________________________________________________ Holger Kipp Diplom-Mathematiker Senior Consultant Tel. : +49 30 436 58 114 Fax. : +49 30 436 58 214 Mobil: +49 178 36 58 114 Email: holger.kipp@alogis.com alogis AG Alt-Moabit 90b D-10559 Berlin http://www.alogis.com __________________________________________________________ alogis AG Sitz/Registergericht: Berlin/AG Charlottenburg, HRB 71484 Vorstand: Arne Friedrichs, Joern Samuelson Aufsichtsratsvorsitzender: Reinhard Mielke
