Sorry, I've not done comparison timings recently. Nor has anyone spent dedicated time improving performance yet. But if you do testing, make sure to use the latest code in CVS; someone found a performance issue this morning that stood out and I fixed it for a 20x improvement building namespace-intensive docs. :-) -jh-
