New .NET 2.0 Web Service and XML Benchmarks Released
Microsoft has released a new iteration of the Web Service and XML benchmark tests originally developed by Sun. This new version includes tests done using .NET 2.0 Beta 2 and show a remarkable improvement in performance both of web service requests and XML processing.
Using the same tests that were originally developed by Sun and later recreated by Microsoft the tests were run again, this time using .NET 2.0 Beta 2.
For the web services tests, .NET 2.0 Beta 2 showed significant improvements over both the Java based versions as well as .NET 1.1 in every test. For example, in the EchoList test in which a linked list is sent from a web service, .NET 2.0 was able to reach an average throughput of 1022 transactions per second while JWSDP 1.4 and IBM Websphere were only able to reach 400 transactions per second. The EchoStruct test had similar performance metrics with .NET 2.0 averaging 992 tps and JWSDP and IBM WebSphere averaging only 400 and 416 tps respectively.
The XML tests had similar results with the SAX/Pull test showing .NET 2.0 Beta 2 reaching over 300 tps while the Sun Java JVM 1.5 only reaching ~160 tps.

从这些数据上来看,在Web Service和XML的处理上,.NET要比java的效率更高啊!本人并没有求证过。
