Could you provide more details regarding the "performance reasons" and why they are not relevant for messages smaller then 4k?

Turning chunking off can reduce performance by 20-30% for messages larger than about 4K. It also severely increased memory usage causing all kinds of scalability problems. CXF 2.1.2 (releasing today once it synced everywhere), changes things a little bit. For messages 4K and smaller, it doesn't use chunking. Once the message hits 4K, it flips to chunking mode (unless turned off). -- Daniel Kulp [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.dankulp.com/blog ________________________________________________________________________ In order to protect our email recipients, Betfair Group use SkyScan from MessageLabs to scan all Incoming and Outgoing mail for viruses. ________________________________________________________________________
