- eridius 7y agoThat's true, but performance improvements don't require fulltime developers. Many companies are directly impacted by OpenSSL performance (maybe moreso in the past when a big question about HTTPS adoption was the performance overhead of adding SSL to all requests, whereas today it's generally considered not a problem) which means companies have an incentive to submit patches to fix identifiable performance issues.
