I don't have up-to-date comparisons right here, but I would guess that there are always factor 5-10 between the technologies: my guess is: midweight request in corba <1 ms rmi 3-10 ms soap 30 - 100 ms rmi has the disadvantage of java serialization which is slow. SOAP has the big disadvantage of using XML which bloats the request and needs time to remap. Expressed in signal 2 noise ratios I would guess 1:2 for CORBA, 1:10 for RMI and 1:100 for SOAP. > > Regards, > Tom regards Leon --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
