>I am working on a summary of this issue for a project I am involved in.
Feel free to do some new experiments as part of your project! And please send us a copy of your summary, we're eager to learn. >1. Is the following still accurate? I wrote the bit about 100,000 elements being 50 megs http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=axis-user&m=107885037929438&w=2 That was for Axis 1.1. 1.2b may well be better, I haven't tried. You left out the part where I talked about the encoding choices; that was worst case scenario and if you configure Axis to leave out xsd:type attributes and multirefs it's a lot better. Document/literal should be better, too. >3. Are there plans to try and better these limits, or is that much of an >issue for people? There's also been some experiments with fitting Axis with a pull parser; this would radically change things.
