Use a Provider. When I get around to packaging my SQL provider (really soon now, I promise), you can configure your queries in httpd.conf and get caching for free. With taglibs, you will always run through a XSP bottleneck. Actually, you would usually use a mixed approach. Use a provider for retrieving and displaying pages made from SQL data, and XSP (probably with ESQL) to modify data. Of course, if your DB data is highly dynamic and barely cacheable anyways, then use XSP all the way.
