Performance and how to measure it is always a bit of a contentious subject but I'd be interested to know how you are measuring this additional latency.

 

 

Additionally, I'm sure performance is affected by;

 

1) Load on the device possibly

 

2) What features you are applying with the HTTP Profile

 

3) What features you are NOT applying/using that might improve things

 

 

For instance, the RTT won't change but far fewer packets will be exchanged with the client if you have compression enabled.
