### Description a tls connection uses 52104 bytes. Among these memory, tcp_connection structure use 776 bytes and tcp_rd_buf use 6000 bytes, and the left part (45328 bytes) are all about SSL session with crypto. ### Expected behavior kamailio does some optimization for self defined BIO_TYPE_SOURCE_SINK bio type, to save more memory #### Actual observed behavior among this 45328 bytes, the biggest parts are BIO read buffer(16KB) and BIO write buffer(16KB). currently kamailio uses BIO_TYPE_SOURCE_SINK type bio, which needs kamailio manage the buffer by itself (there is no optimization). While nginx uses BIO_TYPE_MEM type bio, which is a openssl's internal bio type with memory optimization. As a result, nginx use less memory to accept more TLS connections than kamailio #### Debugging Data None #### Log Messages Mar 30 19:46:46 localhost.localdomain sipproxy[2273]: INFO: <core>
