WCF Service - basicHttpBinding versus others - performance

Hi all

I have a WCF Service running in IIS that I use to Receive & Send a very basic DataContract class to and from a client. The DataContract class is basically a list of strings.

I am using basicHttpBinding. Is there anything more efficient?

Also, if I wanted to add in compression where would I start, if it's even advisible?

Here is my config

<behaviors>
      <serviceBehaviors>
        <behavior name="MyBehaviour">
          <serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true" />
          <serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="true" />
          <dataContractSerializer maxItemsInObjectGraph="2147483647" />
        </behavior>
      </serviceBehaviors>
    </behaviors>    
    
    <services>
      <service name="Manager.Mobile.WebService.MyService" behaviorConfiguration="MyBehaviour">
        <endpoint name="MyServiceEndPoint" address=""
                  binding="basicHttpBinding"
                  bindingConfiguration="MyServiceBinding"
                  contract="Manager.Mobile.WebService.IMyService" />
        <endpoint contract="IMetadataExchange" binding="mexHttpBinding" address="mex" />
      </service>
    </services>
    
    <bindings>
      <basicHttpBinding>
        <binding name="MyServiceBinding"
               receiveTimeout="00:05:00"
               sendTimeout="00:05:00"
               openTimeout="00:05:00"
               closeTimeout="00:05:00"
               transferMode="Streamed"
               bypassProxyOnLocal="false"
               useDefaultWebProxy="true"
               maxBufferSize="2147483647"
               maxReceivedMessageSize="2147483647"
               maxBufferPoolSize="2147483647">
          <readerQuotas maxDepth="2147483647"
                        maxStringContentLength="2147483647"
                        maxArrayLength="2147483647"
                        maxBytesPerRead="2147483647"
                        maxNameTableCharCount="2147483647" />
          <security mode="None" />
        </binding>
      </basicHttpBinding>
    </bindings>
