Thanks for yet another valuable contribution! I've committed this patch. Your others will have to wait a little while since I have to earn some money today (instead of working on Apache SOAP).
I have some questions. 1. What do you use to do this profile? I have very little experience with profilers, mainly with JInsight, but that was over a year ago. 2. What is "ComplexRequest"? 3. Do you know what version of JavaMail you are using? Something very interesting that I had not noticed before is that provider.invoke gets on the request and response contexts, so that even "plain" RPCs have their SOAP envelope put into SOAPContext and subsequently extracted. I am thinking that the SOAPContext should gain the ability to hold a SOAP envelope other than simply as the root part to avoid the expense of extracting it. In fact, SOAPContext should be able to keep track of whether there are any attachments versus just an evelope to optimize the situation where there is only an envelope. We would use lazy evaluation to stuff it into the root part if the root part is requested, but otherwise provide shortcuts to just access the envelope.
