I have a pipeline with 1 generator, 1 castor (non cachable) transformer, 2
xsl transformation and 1 xml serialization. I tryed to run it with both
xalan and xsltc, and the benefit (mesured by JMeter with 5 and 50 concurrent
threads) gave me a around 10% gain on the whole pipeline (that is less than
15% for the transformation, since the xslt transformer take nearly all the
time).

Did you really have a 50% benefit ?
