Hi, While playing with OptimizeIt, I found quite interesting piece of code in Xalan code, class org.apache.xml.utils.DefaultErrorHandler:
public DefaultErrorHandler() { m_pw = new PrintWriter(System.err, true); } Which, according to OptimizeIt, takes 42.72% of time on the simple pipeline with XSP generator and XML serializer (modified /cocoon/sub/xsp sample, without transformation). This was hard to believe, so I got Xalan CVS and quickly hacked this class (diff attached). The results are astonishing: also I did not get much improvement in throughput (too much time was taken by the sockets; may be more testing threads will help), but processing time improved on 386%, from 498 ms to 129 ms. I though somebody might be interested in this result, so here is the letter :) PS If somebody could ask Xalan guys to get rid of new PrintWriter() - this would be great :) PPS XSPs *are* fast. XSL is slow :-| Vadim
