You found my little benchmark! :-)
I will gladly awnser any question you have.

You can read the entire discussion with the guy from Microsoft
responsible for the benchmarks here:

The discussion is long, but in the end he could reproduce my results.
The only way that WCF could beat aalto/jibx performance wise was using
a binary protocol.

It's undoubtedly faster, but I would not call it equivalent.
The programming model is different and there a bunch of WS-* specs
that are supported in WCF that this test doesn't address.

Sorry for the silence.
I kept silent mainly because I didn't experienced any problems when
using Aalto, everything works, but faster :-)
You've done an excellent job.
