Responding to a few points. We do indeed use the OS page cache. The hottest files remain in cache and are not served from disk. We manage what is cached in the page cache and what is directly released using the SF_NOCACHE flag.

I believe our TLS initiative was started before browsers started to complain, and was done to protect our customer's privacy.

We have lots of fancy congestion optimizations in TCP. We offload TLS to the NIC, *NOT* TCP.
