In my experience if you use Expat as a parser it doesn't seem to matter. 
All the overhead of network, message queueing, database interaction etc. 
are a lot larger than a few ms for XML parsing.

Currently I'm using them together: based on a WSDL description output 
custom packers and unpackers that create/decode SOAP, and route it 
through a messaging layer (MSMS or MQSeries).
