I already commented on Elliotte's (mistaken ;-) ) contention separately,
but I'm curious what benchmarks were presented at the Binary workshop in
support of this point. I know Sun talked about their "Fast Web
Services", but there the encoding changes were comingled with a bunch of
other things so it's difficult to separate out the performance
difference due to the ASN.1 encoding from the effect of the other
changes. Were there some other benchmarks presented? I hadn't seen much
in going through the papers.
