Calling a web service without using soap

I have a web service I'm converting it to wcf

I want to create a couple methods in the wcf... these will call methods in the web service

but I don't want to use soap or whatever because it is so slow

So I made a WCF service inside my web project.

Then I new up the web service and call a method...

Is it using soap? Is this just the same as calling any other method in the code? Just as fast? Is newing up the web service slow?

The default configuration of WCF is basichttpbinding. This is the same as an old web service(SOAP).

To send information in a binary format you need to configure WCF to use nettcpipbinding.
