Thanks, James, for the detailed comments. Not that I understood everything of it--I'm afraid I'm rather unexperienced with Java in general. Your suggestions sound quite convincing, only I don't know how to actually carry them out. Now maybe what follows is terribly boring newbie stuff. In that

I use FOP with Xalan and I have noticed that the performance is really better with the last version of Xalan (the speed is multiply by 10) !!! That sounds interesting. FOP 0.20.2 is being distributed with a file called xalan-2.0.0.jar. Is it technically okay to just go and grab a newer
