Apache with mod_ssl or mod_gnutls?

Thanks.  It busy waits instead of using select, which causes the long
debug log.  Attached is a edited log that cuts out all the repeated
calls to read.

Could you also generate a similar log for gnutls 2.6.x that works?

I'm not sure what the log implies, it seems strange to me.  Comparing it
with the gnutls 2.6.x log might suggest something.
