Motivation: Support for Netty SslProvider.OPENSSL_REFCNT (OpenSSL-based implementation which does not have finalizers and instead implements ReferenceCounted). Modification: Add destroy method to SslEngineFactory to allow cleaning up reference counted SslContext. Result: Users can opt-in to a finalizer free OpenSslEngine and OpenSslContext.

Do you mean you're not sure OPENSSL_REFCNT is production ready yet and you want to experiment first? |

I believe it is production ready, however it is still marked "unstable" in Netty here https://github.com/netty/netty/blob/4.1/handler/src/main/java/io/netty/handler/ssl/SslProvider.java#L37 |
