yes, It seems strange, I use command line, is it a factor? actually the xml documents are very small, about 1K bytes each. I use linux "time" command to measure time, it reports that 4 seconds is from user usage, 0.5 second for system usage. Is it because the slow start of java VM?
I'd say nearly all of that time is the VM startup overhead in addition to the CORBA connection overhead. The best way to get an idea of true performance is to do it programmatically rather than time the command line tools.
