https can't be accelerated. Only way to accelerate https is to have a
faster https server.

https is using SSL as transport carrier, and SSL is a encrypted
end-to-end communication with challange based server and client
authentication. A accelerator can't intercept a SSL stream and thus it
can't be accelerated.
