SOAP is the protocol used most often in web services communications. Implementations of the Web Services Resource Framework (WSRF) use SOAP as a communications protocol as well. Performance analysis' for SOAP toolkits have been performed for various cases and toolkits but WSRF implementations have generally not been taken into account. This work compares the SOAP performance of three WSRF implementations, namely UNICORE 6 WSRFLite 1.8.6, Globus Toolkit 4 Java WS-Core 4.2.1 and Apache Muse v2.2.0. The benchmark results give a clear indication on how implementations fare performance-wise and can be used to decide which implementation is to be used, especially if performance is an issue.
