What version of XmlSchema jar are you picking up?    I know this area was 
REALLY bad in <=1.4.2.   WIth 1.4.3, we did add some namespace context caching 
which has helped tremendously.   

I would like to switch XmlSchema to  more of a Stax based parsing, but it's 
quite a bit of work that we haven't had time to really investigate.  The 
namespace context caching is kind of a "band aid" that make it a bit more 
tolerable, but still not ideal.

Not much we can do about the wsdl4j stuff though.
