Hi Werner, last week we just tried to use castor with the latest version of xerces 2.9.1. I don't know why, but the performance increase was dramatic, from 400 ms to 150 ms for parsing one XML file with Schema validation! But to make it clear, I don't think it is a problem of castor or xerces. I suspect more the configuration of the server inside the Bea Server is the problem. So sorry, that I don't have an explanation for our problem, but at least we have a solution for it.
Thanks a lot for your help and comments! Jochen 2007/11/21, Werner Guttmann <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > Hi Jochen, > > let's see whether investigating classloading in general takes you > anywhere.
