I have done some investigating in the Rampart module and one reason it uses a lot of memory is that in the RampartEngine it creates a RampartMessageData which appears to convert the entire message to a DOM and then back to OM. Bypassing this processing by modifying the Rampart module.xml allows us to do "true" streaming (but of course, you can't do that if you actually want Rampart to modify the outbound or inbound message).
Also, some research I did indicated (if I understood it correctly) that in Axis1.1.1 MTOM doesn't really work as an attachment - it ALWAYS will get encoded as Base64 embedded in the message - there was a config option previously (in Axis1.0) that allowed some sort of parameter to define binary data nodes, but it seems to have disappears. -----Original Message----- From: Sebastian Roschke [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 01, 2007 5:04 AM To: axis-user@ws.apache.org Subject: Re: [Axis2][Rampart] Rampart and SwA Hi Thilina, thanks for the answer. I know that Rampart is able to secure MTOM messages. But utilizing MTOM is not usable for large messages. The amount of required memory is that high it is not usable for our project... I don't know the excact reasons for that, but in our performance tests the MTOM approach requires a lot of additional memory. The MTOM approach with file caching needs additional excecution time. Therefore we try to implement processing of large messages(more than 100MB) with SwA and java streams. Do you know where I can ask questions concerning the roadmap of specific components of Axis2? Maybe this is the wrong mailing list for such kind of question. But anyway, thanks for your answer...
