Just try it out:
In [8]: import xmlrpclib
In [9]: a = xmlrpclib.dumps(('hello world',))
In [10]: len(a)
Out[10]: 80
In [11]: print a
<params>
<param>
<value><string>hello world</string></value>
</param>
</params>
Even with some additional boilerplate like XML declaration etc. there is
still a little bit room until 10 kB are reached. :-)
