Hi Erin.
I spotted it initially on a dual core (Dell D820), but I've also run and
reproduced it on a single processor machine (I just verified this again
before replying).
What are you think? Some sort of shared memory issue or something? Is
it something I'm doing do you think?

Hi Tom,
I couldn't reproduce the problem using Stream and Xalan 2.7.0 but I
could reproduce it using DOM. Are you on a multiprocessor machine or a
single processor machine?
Thanks.

Re: Templates/Transformers + thread safety???
Thanks Erin.
I've updated that test download to include testing against stream
source/result instances. Still getting unexpected results on these
(stream source/result) when not synschronizing on the template
instance. Zip available at
http://milyn.codehaus.org/xalan/xalan-test-v2.zip (zip also includes the
milyn jar).
Thanks again Erin.
Regards,
Tom.
