Hi all,
How can we send SOAP messages in gzip format, ie in compressed manner. What all should I do for that? Also what should I do to uncompress the message I got as response? Do this gzip seriously improve performance?

Please help me.
Thanks in advance

I looked into some aspects of this question for this article comparing Fast Infoset with gzip.

Using GZIP makes a big difference in XML file size, as you might expect from the repeating tags. Unzipping on the receiving end using ZipInputStream adds about 10% to the parsing time. So performance will depend on the relation between network transmission speed and CPU speed.

Note that I did not do a complete SOAP application for that article, I just looked at file sizes and DOM parsing time.
