We have been looking on this to get an idea of expected web
service response times.

I recently came across a web service from Microsoft, that updates a small portion of a forum page asynchronously - after the page is initially displayed:

The thing that puzzles me is that response times range widely - the last time I checked, response times ranged from 125 milliseconds to 1,610 milliseconds, with lots of numbers in-between. Does the Web server cache the response, but not always? The response is only 343 bytes total, so I can't imagine the network being a bottleneck
