Say I create a single client stub, I have not seen it mentioned that you
need to cleanup the transport after you are done with the client stub? Hence
why do you need to do it in the below case?

By the way, I do appreciate all the comments made so far on this issue. My
understanding has increased due to your comments.

We used the commons pooling approach in the end but only creating one
ConfigurationContext. This seems to work well. The only thing that worries
me now is Deepals last comment. Any insight into this?

Merry Xmas.

Yes, creating ConfigurationContext is very expensive since it involve
reading various files. So as Thilina mentioned create a ConfigurationContext
and use the created ConfigurationContext for subsequent call. Simply when
you create the stub pass the same configuration context.

However when you use this approach, do not forget to cleanup the transport.
You can do that by getting the service client from the stub, and calling its
cleanup transport method.
