I think (some) people were asking about the back-end to try to help you configure http compression, which is done differently with different servers. Given your requirements, that and XML is probably the way to go for the short term, although simple hand-rolled textual formats may offer much better performance with negligible complexity for some stuff.

I'm not meaning to frustrate you - particularly since you're being kind enough to spend your time sending me suggestions. The back-end is called 4D and it definitely does not have server-side AMF support. I know the right people to ask and have already triple-checked that AMF support is not available. I've even checked with people that might have had reason to roll their own AMF support and none of them have. The main product itself isn't going to have new features added until the next version which doesn't have any announced date. I just didn't think it was worth wasting people's time trying to find an answer on the server-side as I've already got that covered. Thanks for your help.
