Why would a webservice call be slower from dotnet 2.0 than 1.1?

[Andrew Sharpe]

I have two test apps that call my webservice with the exact same code in
each. One is running in VS2003, the other in VS2005. The 2003 version takes
1 second, the 2005 version takes 20-30 seconds. It only takes that long on
the first call though, after that it too returns in 1 second. The code is
very simple:

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) {
MyWebService n = new MyWebService();
n.MyMethod();
MessageBox.Show("done");
}

For what it's worth, the web service is a Java application but I don't think
that should matter should it? Are there any known issues with calling web
services in Dotnet 2.0? Any suggestions at all?

Fixed this by adding the following to my app.config:

<configuration>

...

<system.net>
<defaultProxy>
<proxy bypassonlocal="true" usesystemdefault="false" />
</defaultProxy>
</system.net>

</configuration>
