-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 A few things...
First I am working on a demo that will show the performance and bandwidth differences between the various ways of exchanging data between Flex apps and the backend. I'll let everyone know when it's ready... Hopefully next week. Second, the GZIP thing does work to reduce bandwidth, but you take quite a hit on latency and server cpu cycles depending on just how much data and how often stuff is passing through the servlet or apache filter. In every case I've ever seen, RemoteObject significantly increases developer productivity, significantly reduces bandwidth, significantly reduces latency, significantly reduces server load, and significantly reduces client cpu cycles. This applies to REST, SOAP, and JSON. With the most significant benefits when compared against SOAP, since SOAP is so verbose compared to the others. - -James Dave Wolf wrote: > Basically every webcontainer these days supports GZIP compression.

That makes that differential much less relevant. > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFE7OF4sZ9+wiQzdmARAorBAKCDvmyF/vPp4CANVJ+xOW6fhiTHFwCgv5is 3O+Es/BPlaop2gx5lnPBHYM= =mnO6 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com Yahoo!
