To try and do anything with the bytes without converting it to the appropriate code page may make matters worse. I would suggest looking for other areas to optimize. Maybe perform your own xpath query instead of using the Node.valueOf and "cache" the xpath for future use. That could cut down on startup overhead each time valueOf is called.

Hi;
Is there a way to get the result of a Node.valueOf() as an array of bytes? I know I can convert a String to a byte[] but for a large amount of data this is a giant hit.
Thanks – dave
