Web Services platforms – Comparisons?

Hey all. Our bioinformatics group has been using Axis 1.1 for some time now and they have been pushing it to its limits in terms of performance (i.e. size of messages it can handle and number of messages per second).

I have advised them to consider other Java (unfortunately they can’t move to .NET) Web Services platforms (e.g. Sun’s WSDP, IBM’s WebSphere, etc.). However, before they start looking into these platforms they want to have a look at a quantitative comparison (including Axis). Since I am going to be leaving Newcastle quite soon, I am afraid I don’t have the time to do the comparison myself. I started looking on the Web but without great success. So, I was wondering whether readers of this blog can point me to papers/articles/web pages. Many thanks in advance!
