I'm not satisfied with the answers given by the SOAP vs REST questions notably here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/106546/performance-of-soap-vs-xml-rpc-or-rest

because it's just general philosophical answers and not pragmatic answers with some study cases.

Nobody can give precise cases of when soap would be more suitable than rest, especially as for performance point of view ?

For example let's say I have a flash client for a financiall simulation wizard calling legacy code. Should I use SOAP or REST ? Why ?
