You can also soapUI and loadUI to do performance/load testing.

I sometimes perform a check for the service using bit a of VBScript
independent of i5.

Hi Scott,
Thanks for you response,
I do not know why it is slow. I thought you could shed some light on why it
could be.. I am doing something wrong or is it that the target server
(Sabrix) response is taking that long.Is it because the request message size
of 353 kilobytes.
Thanks Raj

Hi Scott,I am using http_url_post API and getting the XML response back.
Since the response XML size may exceed Maximum allowed in RPGLE, I am
getting the XML response back through temporary IFS file.Question:I am
experiencing a performance problem. It taking around 30 seconds to get a
response back for a request message size of 353 kilobytes. I do not know if
the performance issue is on the server side or is its http_url_post API. Can
you please let me know if I can do something better to increase the
performance. 
Below is the code for your reference:
            //'Create a Temporary IFS File to get the XML response from
SABRIX            @IFSTempfile = http_tempfile() + '.xml';
            //'Process to Convert the postdata/Inputdata to URL encoded
data.            form = WEBFORM_open();            WEBFORM_setPtr(form:
'instring': pWk_XML_Input :                           p_Offset );
WEBFORM_postData(form: postData: postDataSize );
            // Post data and get document            rc =
http_url_post(%trim(@ServerName)                      : postData
: postDataSize                      : @IFSTempfile                      :
@HTTPPostTimeout                      : *OMIT                      :
%trim(@URLEncodApp) );                       WEBFORM_close(form);
            if rc <> 1;              unlink(@IFSTempfile);
DS_HTTP_StatusData.HTTPErrDesc = 'HTTP Post Failed. ' +
http_error();              DS_HTTP_StatusData.ReturnCd    = HTTPPostFailed;
Endif;
                       Thanks for all your help.Raj
