    When to use WebServices ?

    Hi All,
    I am very much confused about when to use WebServices. I don't see
    WebServices as a good choice because a new instance is created on every
    method call. Is a WebService capable of handling large number of requests and
    doing heavy processing.
    Also what if a client application calls a method on WebService but the
    WebService holds the call for say 30 seconds and do not return. Is there a
    performance hit because of this or any other issue ? (WebService holds back
    the call by calling WaitOne() in method that was called)

    Is there any other alternative to WebServices ? I think there is definetly a
    performance hit because of frequent creation and destrying of objects.

    We are designing a new project and I need to decide on whether WebServices
    are userful of not.

    regards
