[Lift] Scala as an alternative for complex length xml/xslt transformation?

2009-07-20 Thread robin bakkerus

Because Scala currently is not mainstream (yet), I think changes are
very small that Scala will used soon in of our projects.
However we do have a large app that relies very heavily on very many,
complex  and time consuming xml/xslt transformation.
I can image that Scala being a functional language as well, may be the
perfect alternative to replace this app.
>From what from the Scala documentation so far, is that it could have
the following advantages over xslt:
- much much faster, because it is compiled
- more productive, with the help of the IDE debugger etc
- more maintainable, due to the OO nature when making reusable
functions etc.

My questions is:
- Are the above statements correct.
- Are the demo programs demonstrating the xslt functionality
- What performance boost (if any) are realistic

thank in advance
