Performance. Parsers like XPP are much faster than any available SAX parser (at least that I know of). See http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/xml/library/x-injava. The performance comes at the expense of full standard compliance but for most documents that isn't really important. I don't think that XML Pull should replace SAX, just be another usage option. I haven't done a benchmark of the Digester it self, maybe the XML parsing part is not the main problem, but I have a feeling it is.
