The sample program reads an external XML file generated from an Access DataBase. Transformation 1 generates a DOMResult which contains up to about 400 records from the DB. They only add about 1k each to the memory requirements. Transformation 2 reads a new DOMSource( theDOMResult.getNode() ); and generates a SAXResult() that uses the FOP Driver to write a PDF file. This demonstrates enough performance improvements to cut down his execution time significantly. I also pointed out that LOGGING is a performance hog. This is mentioned on the Cocoon list from time to time. In one case I got a 20% improvement for an 80 page PDF. When he absorbs this, (and if he comes back) I might point him towards some material on servlets and re-using his compiled XSLT stylesheets. -- John Austin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
