Here is an overview of the issue:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
        Key: SOAP-166
    Summary: streaming reponse payloads
       Type: Improvement

     Status: Unassigned
   Priority: Major

    Project: Apache SOAP
 Components: 
             All
   Versions:
             2.3

   Assignee: 
   Reporter: Bill Carpenter

Description:
Apache SOAP reads the entire response payload into memory and in most cases makes a few copi
es of it before returning results to the caller.  This is particularly troublesome in the RP
C case (Call.invoke) because the String is fed into an XML parser which could just as well t
ake in InputStream (or Reader).

Significant performance and memory footprint improvements can be had by streaming the respon
se at least as far as the XML parser input.

PS:-  I am working on a patch for exactly this thing and will submit it soon.
