Question

I'm interested in knowing the different bandwidth and performance characteristics of the different WCF bindings (basicHttp, WSHttp, nettcp, etc.). Aside from writing a service and exposing the different endpoint bindings that we can call to exercise, how could I measure these metrics?

In particular, I need to know how bandwidth and performance scales as number of messages go up in number.

thanks!

Solution

I'm not sure that looking at bindings alone will answer that question as are there are other factors like concurrency, instancing and throttling that weigh heavily on how a given service will perform. That being said, here's a great post that tried to take a look at certain performance aspects of the various bindings:
