The benchmark included trials with varying compression/encryption port options as well as varying levels of DB Encryption such as Simple, Medium, and Strong. The benchmark results determined that Domino Sync Manager and Notes local replication basically performed identical. Testing with DB Encryption enabled was negligible since it did not affect synchronization. The most noteworthy finding was that whenever port compression was enabled the performance increased 25.7% !!!
Port Options off: 144 seconds
Port Compression: 107 seconds
Port Encryption: 144 seconds
Port Compression/Encryption: 107 seconds
