BasicHttpBinding and .NET comparison

I wrote a .NET 2.0 service and client and a WCF BasicaHttpBinding Service and client, and found that the BasicHttpBinding was faster than the old .NET service and client

I was expecting more of the same speed. Why would BasicHttpBinding be faster ?

There are quite a few performance optimizations for WCF. Especially if you use the data contract serialier which is faster than the XMLSerializer.
