performance vs security on 1 GB droplet

$
0
0

After realizing that a 512MB droplet just can't handle the load I switched over to a

1 GB droplet (+ 2GB swap)
irdmail standard install
commercial SSL certificate
greylisting disabled

Performance is good using standard settings.
I also enabled SSL stapling and I think (or want to believe) that it's even a tick faster now.

Security with standard settings is an acceptable A- (via SSLLABS test)

The test is complaining that:
- there is no Strict-Transport-Security in place
- server does not support Forward Secrecy

However, if I enable any of the two above my mailbox freezes right after I send out a single email.

My question is:
Is this happening because of low RAM or does iredmail simply not support these additional security measures?
