At this point, the startup performance of the bus is entirely tangled up in
Xerces. I'm having a hard time believing that building a DOM from StaX is
going to beat Xerces, but if someone else thinks so, I guess I'm game.
Sadly, there are no Apache-compatible XML databases I can see out there, so
my idea of 'compiling' all the XML files to DOM trees in some sort of
persistent store seems impossible.
Woodstox provides a significantly faster SAX implementation than Xerces.
But the question is - is the startup time in xerces because of
validation or because of parsing? I'm guess the former.
Its easy to test the Woodstox parser:
java -Dorg.xml.sax.driver=com.ctc.wstx.sax.WstxSAXParser ....
