Couple suggestions: 1) As mentioned, use minOccurs=0 instead of nillable=true. For messages with a lot of "null" values, they are MUCH smaller. 2) Make sure you use the woodstox parser and not the JDK built in parser (for Java6). Woodstox is a LOT faster. 3) If you can, use Fastinfoset. For larger messages, FI can be a huge help as it makes it much smaller on the wire and much easier to parse. (although more expensive to write) 4) If you cannot use FI, but are on a slower connection (aka: not localhost or gigabit), then enable gzip. If you have some large base64 blobs in the message, enabling MTOM would also be important (unless using FI). Not sure if that's the case though. -- Daniel Kulp [email protected] http://dankulp.com/blog
