Where to host the runtime

Hi

We are going to start developping a new Atlas powered ASP.NET 2.0 web application in a few weeks and we plan to use WWF. The ASP.NET application and the WWF runtime will run in the same four processor machine. IIS is configured as a web garden. We have to decide where to host the WF runtime. As far as I know we have several options:

• In the ASP.NET web application
• In a web service running in a different ASP.NET application
• As remoting objects hosted in a different ASP.NET application
• As remoting objects hosted in a Windows Service
• Use WCF (we prefer do not choose this, too much betas)

Which one is the best choice? Which are the pros and cons for each option?

Regards
