EVALUATION
This is a regression of CR 6357710. Need a fix in both deploy and JDK code. Deploy team also filled a CR (7060523) for the issue. SQE has approved to defer CR 7060523 for JDK7.
Note that this should be a partial fix for bug 7060523, which will only apply to JDK repository. Deploy code will address the issue in CR 7060523 separately.
The problem in applet exists since 6u23, not a showstopper for 7.
The problem will only happen when the applet request TLS handshaking/renegotiation very frequently. No wide scope impact. No impact on normal JSSE/HTTPS applications except the Java plugin. The issue in JSSE has been there since the SSLSocketImpl.java was created.
