This sounds to me like comparing apples and oranges.  I can imagine to
compare different ways to encode data (XML, XDR, BER.1, ...) and to
compare different messaget-transfer/RPC mechanisms (SOAP, Sun-RPC,
CORBA, RMI, ...) and different interface definition mechanisms (IDL,
WSDL, ...). But I don't know how to compare (in a sense of
meassurments) SOAP and XML.
