Changing the transport protocol won't make the parser go faster, of course.
Presumably you're trying to avoid parsing the bulk data along with the SOAP
envelope. Have you tried using {MIME|DIME|MTOM} attachments? You could pass
XML in there and parse it separately from the envelope. That way, your SOAP
engine doesn't take the parsing hit. Better, you could reformat the bulk data
to leave out the XML.
