This question came to my head while working with a map in silverlight that displays some harbours, and after mouse_overing the harbour, its data gets displayed in the screen. I did it and now it works, using WCF service, but I get some big delays. My friend told me that maybe Json could handle better with this delay, but I have no idea.
What should I do?
Are you doing WCF with binary encoding (custom binding) instead of XML (basichttpbinding)? That could save a lot of time.

Otherwise, json could be faster but I think the conversion must be done in last option. You certainly can (must) optimize either Server or Client code. For example : Are you returning only the needed Data or a whole object fully populated with list of childs you don’t care?
