If you are not concerned with security you can configure server with http:// url, then it will be available insecure for all operations also for backup and restore. 17c6c5d329ab1ee6e16ff272ed4c8e2ddd355eba (branch http-backup) contains commit for --insecure option for backup/restore to ensure that http is used for backup, restore connection.

If you can test - it would be interesting to know how much speed up can be achieved with omission of SSL. Can you share some benchmarks?

In quick I run backup with standard https and then http (--insecure) and the results is... https -> ~3min http -> ~3min10seconds

Actually I also did not saw any speed-up in my tests. I double checked and --insecure is really forcing http protocol on post 80. Looks like SSL is not limiting factor. Merged to master as it seems to work.
