Hi @zohan.sim1, As of now the performance of DSS REST API is exactly the same as that of SOAP API. As you might be aware, the REST API is the strategic version and SOAP API will be deprecated at some point in future.

Besides, REST API has lower overhead in terms of transport envelopes and multiple helper libraries are available for each programming language.
