How can performance (speed) be improved under WCF; is my config just wrong or something?

[Ronald S. Cook]

Performance in our WCF application is very poor now that we've added a
number of records to tables (not an unrealistic number, though). After
doing that, we did get "max message size" errors to I bumped that number to
99999999 (see below).

Can anyone please tell me if (1) my config files below look ok, and (2) you
have any other ideas why things might be so slow?

Thanks VERY much for any feedback,
Ron
