> Configuration property axis.xml.reuseParsers not documented - significant
> performance boost
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: AXIS-2179
> URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS-2179
> Project: Apache Axis
> Type: Bug
> Components: Documentation
> Versions: 1.2.1
> Environment: JDK 1.5
> Reporter: Eric Johnson
>
> After noticing a performance bottleneck around creating new SAX parsers, I
> noticed that the code creates a new one from the factory each time.
> Digging into the code, I discovered that the XMLUtils.java class has some
> static initialization to reuse parsers - cool - except the feature isn't in
> any documentation that I could find, and it is turned off by default.
> Before starting Tomcat, I did an "export
> JAVA_OPTS=-Daxis.xml.reuseParsers=true", and got a 1.5-1.6 ms improvement, on
> average for *each* SOAP invocation.
> That's a huge improvement, as far as I'm concerned.
> Being slightly unfamiliar with commons-discovery, I couldn't figure out how
> to set this property except by using JVM-wide system properties. It would be
> great to have documentation on that too.
> Of course, it would be neat if the default for this functionality was *true*,
> and the option was spurious, but I cannot tell immediately why that would be
> unsafe. Barring that, documentation is essential.
