Which disadvantages / problems might occur, if all content from a ASP.Net WebForms application was received through a WCF service, rather than through a direct database call?
(Entity Framework 4.0 as provider, SQL Server 2008 R2 as database)
A scenario would be content from a CMS. Instead of using a library which calls the database directly, I'm thinking of a WCF service that wraps the calls to the library.
Has anyone any experience with this and can tell me something about the performance?

I have implemented several web applications where all the data is retrieved though WCF. There are no noticeable performance impacts as long as your service is implemented well.
