Hi,
I'm not clear how Axis2 implemented REST. But if I evaluate response time of a
REST call and a SOAP call to the same Axis2 web service deployed on the same
machine (with REST enabled), which one will be faster? REST is supposed to be
lighter and faster. Am I right? The main reason I ask is that I was wondering
whether the REST implementation in Axis2 is just translating http get request
into a soap message and passing it to the SOAP engine for processing. If that
is the case, REST call would be slower.
I thought I should ask this before actually doing the performance test to find
it out.
Thanks,
Yan
