No you are wrong infact SAX in faster as it doesn't read the whole document and keeps into memory.
-----Original Message----- From: Suresh Addagalla [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, May 15, 2002 12:46 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Performance of Xerces & Xalan Excuse me for asking an off-topic question, but thought that many servlet developers would be familiar with this. In my servlet application, I need to transform XML data and send HTML response. For XML parsing and transforming, I came across Xerces and Xalan from Apache. But I would like to know if some one has worked on the same and has an idea about them from the performance point of view with respect to other XML parsers/processors available for Java. Since these tools have both DOM and SAX implementations, I guess DOM is faster if memory requirements are met? I need my application to be fast and also scalable. Any better alternatives, ideas??
