Hiya folks. I was RTFM'ing and I saw that:

"Even if the connection is dropped, all connections involving SSL to the
same
~ host again, will benefit from libcurl's session ID cache that drasticly
~ reduces re-connection time."

Does this mean that if I re-use the same easy-curl handle and always
connect to the same host, I can avoid the overhead of the SSL handshake
each time? I'm asking because I'm trying to reduce my network usage for
an embedded app which will be run over GSM networks.

TIA.
