We use SG2 on a cluster， but we think SG2 use https will slow down the api speed of es. Is this true ?
Or any benchmark ?

HTTPS on the REST layer is optional, you can switch it off and use HTTP instead if you’re worried about performance. It’s basically a tradeoff between security and performance.

For production, we recommend using OpenSSL instead of the Java implementation (JCE), which can indeed have a performance impact.

If you’re using OpenSSL, then you can refer to one of the many OpenSSL benchmarks out there. The impact depends on your system and hardware.
