I'm happy to be corrected if wrong, but I believe the actual TCP conversation is basically the same for CXF sync/async service invocation, it just *appears* to work asynchronously from the POV of the client code. For really long-running jobs you are probably better off doing proper server-side asynchronous services with persistent state, like this: http://www.jroller.com/gmazza/entry/creating_service_side_asynchronous_web Andrew. -- :: http://biotext.org.uk/ ::
