hi glen,
only some of it is due to GLUE<->GLUE optimizations.
from what i've been told, GLUE<-><other> is pretty fast too.
i'll leave it to others to create the performance benchmarks! ;-)
cheers,
graham
p.s. GLUE 3.1, due out soon, is about 10% faster than 3.0

Hi Graham!
I'm curious - does your 500messages/second figure rely on "99.44%" SOAP, or
do you use special GLUE->GLUE patterns to speed things up? I.e. should you
expect that same rate (or similar) from GLUE->.NET, say?
