Maximum size of a SOAP response

Is there a maximum size which Mediator can handle in respect of a SOAP Response, either by recommendation or otherwise.
Cheers

Hi Barry,

I don’t think we place any specific limits on the size of the SOAP message but there are of course some concerns with performance and resource requirements as your SOAP message becomes larger and/or more complex. In a recent benchmark, I measured SOAP requests between 9kb and 320kb.
The 9kb message had a response time of around 200ms, which of course includes sequence processing. The 320kb message required 1600ms.

The increase in response times was for the most part linear so it should be quite easy for you to calculate an acceptable limit for your application.
