You are comparing two things that cannot be compared.

What are you trying to do?
If you have direct access to the database, then you don't really need WCF services unless you want to expose some features of your data access layers to a third party.

WCF is a communication strategy that you should use if you want to expose your functionality to other applications \ clients.

If you just want some functionality within your web application, then just use a normal class. Your web application can consume this no problems, there's absolutely no need to use a WCF service.

If you want other applications to be able to access your code, then use a WCF class. WCF will be a little bit slower than a 'Normal Class' simply because there's a bit of overhead involved when setting up the communication channels etc.
