&lt;p&gt;Hi, I just tried out your scenario and I had 0 seconds go by when making the WCF call.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I then tried it with milliseconds and I got 123 milliseconds go by, which is about what I would expect.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Might be an issue on your machine.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I have a web project that exposes a Silverlight enabled WCF service with a handful of OperationContracts that currently are returning hard coded, very small results (usually either a single value or a few light objects defined in DataContracts with only a couple properties (usually an integer id and a string description).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The solution has a Silverlight application project in it, and it includes a service reference to the WCF service in it. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The problem - the callbacks from the WCF service are taking 10 seconds! &amp;nbsp;Even though they aren't actually accessing a database and are just returning simple data.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;An example:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;[OperationContract]&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;public int GetDocumentCount(int someIdIWillUseEventuallyButNotNow)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;{&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;///TODO: &amp;nbsp;Implement me instead of passing back nonsense.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;return DateTime.Now.Second;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;}&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;takes 10 seconds!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I have worked with WCF from ASP.NET and have never had the callbacks be so slow, even with real data access occurring.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Any ideas?&lt;/p&gt;
