Is it too slow or will you get an exception?

I would appreciate to hear your thoughts on the following: We're using Axis/SOAP to connect our GUI Clients with a backend server. Here's an example: A client wants to display a set of customers. It requests them via SOAP RPC Call and gets a Collection of objects in return, which it can display in a JTable. As you can imagine, the number of objects returned may easily exceed a number of, let's say some thousands. That produces a very large XML SOAP response, which is very hard to parse. It takes about 80 seconds to finish such a request. I tracked the problem down to find out that the bottleneck seems to be on the client side, when deserializing the XML data into Java objects. I'm using Axis 1.2 RC 1 with Xerces 2.6.2. JDK is 1.4.2_05. I'm running Client and Tomcat on the same machine for testing. So, my question: Am I using Axis for something it is not intended or should it be able to handle such large responses? Thank you for your opionion and advice. Cheers, Thomas
