Hi Martin Have you tried downloading the source files from this link...
http://dom4j.org/benchmarks/xpath/index.html I can download them OK. If you're stuck you can get them out of dom4j's CVS repository... http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/dom4j/dom4j/src/doc/benchmark s/xpath/ James ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, May 03, 2002 4:16 PM Subject: [Jaxen] performance tests Hiya, new to this list, sorry if i seem to have no idea what's going on (it's because i don't).. i wanted to download the performance tests linked to from the jaxen homepage, but turns out the links are dead. i then contacted the two authors, and got a reply from Martin Böhm <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> who kindly supplied me with some files that, though different in the exact tests they perform, seem to exercise the relevant parts of the code. however the results i'm getting are radically different from those presented in the analysis. for example, with a 500x10 record document: xpath: //T_MASTER_DAT.PART_ID10x499 (queries an element at the end of the document, necessitating iterating over all nodes) jaxen/dom4j : 102835ms xalan/xerces : 31678ms xpath: //T_MASTER_DAT.PART_ID10x1 (queries an element near the beginning of the document) jaxen/dom4j : 102034ms xalan/xerces : 550ms my question is - has anyone on the list tried to reproduce the test, or do you have access to the original source files used? i'd like to run some variations, but get incomparable results. regards, /m _______________________________________________________________ Have big pipes?
