Hi Jorge,
My understanding of how Rampart works now is that if you do *any*
security processing on your service it will always build the full model
of the document in memory. Chunking is not going to effect this at all.

Hi Dennis,
Thanks for the information. I wonder if there is a limit on the size
of attachments only when I want to encrypt them because in some cases
I don't need to do it and AFAIK, with rampart you can choose which
parts you want to encrypt.
A question for Thilina: When a client invokes a method from my Axis2
Web Service and the response message is going to be very big, so I use
http chunking: Does axis build all the message at once in memory and
then break it pieces?? I possible to build each part in memory and
send it, release memory and build - send the next one??
I'm having some memory issues after invoking some methods that build
big messages. I'm using Axis2 under Tomcat and the memory size ot
Tomcat increases from 50 MB to 300 MB and I didn't see it decreasing.
Thanks and regards,
Jorge Fernández

Hi Jorge,
I haven't verified Rampart handling of attachments, but based on what
I've seen in other cases I suspect it will build an in-memory
representation of the entire document (including attachments, as
embedded base64 text) any time Rampart is engaged for a service. This
should really only be necessary when you're signing or encrypting the
body, but in my trials Rampart built the in-memory tree even when
just
adding timestamps.
The reason why the attachments need to be part of the tree goes
back to
the design of XOP/MTOM and WS-Security. Attachments using XOP/MTOM
are
treated just as if they were embedded directly in the XML document,
using base64 encoding - MTOM is *only* a transport level
optimization.
This means that when you use WS-Security you need to have a view
of the
document with the attachments present as the base64 strings. AFAIK
there's no way around this issue, since it was "by design".
It would be possible in theory for the WS-Security implementation
to be
smart about handling attachments, and basically just generate a
streaming version of the base64 representation for the attachment
data
as needed when signing (digesting, actually) or encrypting. But this
would require changes all the way down to the underlying XML
Signature
and XML Encryption implementations, and I'd suspect such changes are
unlikely to occur without a lot of user demand. In the meantime, I
suspect the practical limit for attachment size with Rampart engaged
will be somewhere in the 10 MB range.
