Hi Raul,
The parser that I am working with clearly doesn't intern element
namespace strings which is the reason I ran into this problem. And
actually I am not sure whether it's a good idea for a parser to intern
element namespace strings given that there could be huge number of
elements being parsed and there's a potential risk of running out of
memory. Also you mention that xerces might be interning namespace
stings but looking at their code I was unable to find that. Can you
point me to the relevant piece of code?
Thanks,
Vishal

seems a small thing, it takes a lot of accumulated time, I even think
in remove this checking altogether or control it by a property.
Perhaps there is a feature set in your DOM parser that interns the
namespaces. I have test with several DOM parsers (xerces, xmlbeans,
jaxb) and all of them the namespaces strings are interns.
If you are not able too toggle the behavior, We can begin to think in
other possibilities (create code on the fly, create an interface with
one implementation or the other a let the JVM inline it). But I think
will be the last resort.

Any signature verification was failing for me, and I have a different
DOM implementation in my environment, so probably you are right. It was
such a basic error that it had to be something like this. In any
case, I
think we should keep string comparison safe.
