 HS/01 Cleanup, prevent repeated use of -p/-oMr (CVE-2017-1000369)
 
+JH/06 Default openssl_options to include +no_ticket, to reduce load on peers.
+      Disable the session-cache too, which might reduce our load.  Since we
+      currrectly use a new context for every connection, both as server and
+      client, there is no benefit for these.
+      GnuTLS appears to not support tickets server-side by default (we don't
+      call gnutls_session_ticket_enable_server()) but client side is enabled
+      by default on recent versions (3.1.3 +) unless the PFS priority string
+      is used (3.2.4 +).
