+### ssl_short_trust `no`
+Enables the use of short lived certificates. This will allow for the certificates
+and keys specified in `ssl_certificate`, `ssl_ca_file` and `ssl_ca_path` to be 
+exchanged and reloaded while the server is running.
+
+In an automated environment it is advised to first write the new pem file to
+a different filename and then to rename it to the configured pem file name to
+increase performance while swapping the certificate.
+
+Disk IO performance can be improved when keeping the certificates and keys stored
+on a tmpfs (linux) on a system with very high throughput.
