I\'ve started using SOAP UI recently to test web services and it\'s pretty cool, but it\'s a huge resource hog.
Is there any way to reduce the amount of resources it use
If you're testing WCF services, you can run wcftestclient from the Visual Studio command line. It works for local or remotely hosted services. Its no good for ASMX-style .NET 2.0 SOAP services though.
