Being relatively new to OpenSSL and security programming in general,
obviously I need to read into these, but could it cause the delay in
sending ServerHello by Java Server. From your above statement I can make
out that it might make overall communication slower, but I believe
application data transfer is not the concern (at least not now), but only
inordinate delay while performing SSL handshake.

Thanks, that was the next step I was going to work on. Would you be so
kind as to point out to me how you figured out that proxy server might
support session resumption? Sorry if this is a very naive question.
