Is there anyway to improve the performance, overall ? I experienced the same thing. My service scope is a "request" type. Can the app server conjure up a dummy service (so as to load apache code first time as you mentioned below ) and be ready for the actual service traffic ? My understanding is WebSphere doesn't load it dynamically...The classes are deployed and ready-to-serve when the server is boot up.

The long time for the first execution is probably time required for the JVM to load classes. Remember they are loaded dynamically as needed, not all at once when your app starts executing. There is a similar issue on the server. The first time any Apache SOAP service is invoked, tons of code has to be loaded, and it seems like it takes *forever*. The first time a different Apache SOAP service is invoked, the Apache SOAP code is loaded, but code for the service must be loaded, and there is a delay.
When I benchmark, I always write code to ignore the time of the first time through my loop so that I am not measuring the time required to load classes, etc.
