Hey,
I looked at this a little while ago for a previous job. I think that
it's a pretty awesome idea, but sadly I could never even find source
for their research, much less any reports of it being successfully
deployed in the wild, which made me sad. Hopefully they'll release it
and then some people here could go to town on it!
Best,
Peter

Yes, but if large scale SSL deployment increased CPU usage to the point
of
necessitating new hardware... the cost could be reduced by purchased
GPU's for servers rather than bunches of entirely new boxes.
Conceptually I think it is a cool idea.
Most likely we'll end up with dedicated SSL termination subcluster, so those
machines could be grabbed with whatever hardware they specifically needed.
Certainly something to keep in mind!
