Nginx Optimizing TLS over TCP to reduce latency: TLS dynamic record sizing

It isn't something that shows up in nginx -V output.. it's just a patch. If you want to really see if it's working test in webpagetest.org/gtmetrix like Matt and I did and/or do tcpdump of the port 443 traffic for test requests and inspect in wireshark.

 

Which version of Centmin Mod you using 123.08stable or 123.09beta01 ? NGINX_DYNAMICTLS='y' option to enable Cloudflare Dynamic TLS Record Size patch on Nginx recompile with centmin.sh menu option 4 will only work with Centmin Mod 123.09beta01 based Nginx and not 123.08stable.

What you mean it's not providing the performance savings it was before 1.13.9 or you mean wont' compile with the patch ? Works fine here with my Centmin Mod Nginx 1.13.9 install.

At end of centmin.sh menu option 4 installs, you get a list of logs created including one for a time stamped patch nginx log which contains the following at /root/centminlogs/patch_patchnginx_250218-141920.log for patch details
