It doesn't impact it at all for me on a Windows 7 box with a 2.4 GHz quad core and 3GB RAM. I enabled SSL on Giganews, but I was initially using port 563 which is still throttled, but I switched to port 443 and I'm back to hitting about 19.5 Mbps again, which is the same speed I used to get before the throttling came into effect and I wasn't using SSL.
