Hi guys, We developed a set of web services with Axis using RPC style, but we need better performance so we try a message style approch. We though that using a message style approch willl get better performance, by avoiding the overhead of the serialization/deserialization process. Instead of geting better performance, my first results are disastrous. It looks like the message style web service is 6 -20 times slower then the old version using JAXP-RPC model.
Does anyone experience the same problem? Is it really the message style very slow comparing with rpc style? Is true that in rpc style an SAX parser is using for parsing the SOAP message, and with message style we need DOM, but is this issue the source for such a huge loose in performance? Do I have to make some settings in web container or web app to get better performance with message style? Romulus
