Hi: XPath API is slow because each time you invoke it it must compile the expression (in fact must get a XPathContext). CachedXPathAPI can be used along the time while the node to parse not change. So first time is slow (the same as XPathAPI) but next calls this class not need to recompile the expression.
Read CachedXPathAPI javadoc API. You can see an samples looking in XPathAPI source code. Bye.
