Well its finally ready for some public consumption. You can grab the code here . ( http://www.theglavs.com/DownloadItem.aspx?FileID=55 ) You can grab the...

One of the easiest performance traps when using WCF services is constant creation of new client proxies when accessing those services. In WSE land, this was common place: MyProxy prox = new MyProxy(); prox.CallServiceMethod(); For example, you might have a class with some instance methods, and in each...

I recently looked through a WCF Performance whitepaper published by Microsoft and was a little puzzled by some of the comparisons. It seems a little skewed towards presentation of graphs showing WCF superiority in performance over current communication and service methods. Now I am confident that WCF...

Recently, I had been asked to examine a situation where WSE V3 service calls were substantially quicker than the equivalent WCF version. The reason in this instance was the fact that the WCF proxy was being created for each and every service call made (which was also the case with WSE V3). WCF proxies...

Hopefully, you have read parts one , two and three in previous posts to get a good idea on what I am trying to achieve. Basically,...
