title: WCF Restful Web Service Client Limits
body: <p>I would like to implement a high-traffic restful .NET 4.0 WCF service which can handle a large number (maybe 2,000) requests a minute.</p>
  
  <p>I understand I will need to have the hardware to handle this number of connections, but where can I expect to see bottlenecks when hosting in either IIS or a Windows service?  What sort of configuration options will I need to tweak?</p>
  
  <p>What happens on the server &amp; client sides when the service gets overloaded?  Do clients simply timeout? </p>
  
  <p>Any information on creating a scalable, high-performance WCF rest service would be greatly appreciated.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
