I had a proxy issue with parser going out on the web to find dtd or schema.  
Maybe it's that.

There could be any number of reasons, but since you're wisely using 
AX the simplest solution is try other parsers such as Crimson and 
Piccolo and see if any of them provide better performance on your 
documents. If they're all equally slow the problem is probably in 
your code. For instance, how do you know it takes 15 minutes before 
it  starts firing start element and end element events?  Isd it 
possible it actually starts much sooner but your output gets buffered 
until then?
