Hi David,

Yes, that should be configured with the log4j.properties (the one in
axis.jar, or any other one that happens to override it).  If you are not
seeing a ton of debug in the output on the server side, then it is
probably set to INFO. :)

If it's DEBUG, you really don't have to try to "include any time" for it
in your testing, as every call will be slowed down dramatically by all
of the extra output.

In any case, I agree that the product feels fairly slow even with just
INFO mode.
