Performance Impact Analysis
Acceptable Overhead
The hybrid approach adds approximately 50% latency to TLS handshakes (75ms to 112ms), which remains well within acceptable thresholds for most applications. CPU utilization increases are manageable with modern hardware.
Optimization Strategies
Key caching, session resumption, and connection pooling can mitigate much of the overhead. Hardware acceleration via PQC-capable HSMs further reduces computational impact on high-throughput systems.
