I built Xalan-C on an Ubuntu 9.10 VMware virtual machine on my laptop, which is a Lenovo T60p with a Core Duo 2600 (2.16GHz) with 2GB of memory. I then created a stylesheet that does an identity transformation and ran the Xalan command line application to transform to a file, reporting the timings: dbert...@ubuntu-vmware:~/apache/test$ Xalan -t -o copy.xml bigXml.txt identity.xsl Source tree parsing time: 1900 milliseconds. Stylesheet compilation time: 0 milliseconds. Transformation time: 3620 milliseconds. So you can see the transformation time is trivial. I plan now to build your sample code as an application and test it. It may be there is some inefficiency in transforming to a XalanDOMString through PrintWriter interface. Can you please verify that an identity transform in your environment through the Xalan command line executable exhibits similar performance to my Ubuntu virtual machine? Thanks! Dave
