Craig,
It depends on exactly what code is running inside of each of the web service calls. Consider these questions: * What functionality did you expose via the web service? * Are they long-running operations? Short-running operations? * What services does the web service method rely upon? o Which services hosted locally vs. remotely? * What kind of hardware does the server have? * How heavy is the current load on the server without the web service? * How many web service calls are being created per second?

I am using web service functions more and more especially in OSD. Main points are whether it is sensible to use a separate dedicated server for this to avoid having too much http traffic on the smsprov server or if having it co-hosted impacts the performance either positively, negatively or not at all. I'm working just now on a site with around 10,000 Clients, deploying about 100 OS per day in rollout phase. (ConfigMgr 2012 SP1) Any thoughts very welcome Andy
