We use this setup, and have gotten it to work quite well, but if you're using XSLT, then the transformer you're using could be a large part of the process cost. Also, we had to re-write a lot of code to actually clean things up because we were doing things in improper ways. Eventually we squeezed every bit of speed we could have and the difference between say, SSI parsed data and JBoss/Tomcat using transforms from a datasource, then handing that to mod_jk/apache is actually within 1 or 2 second differences. In certain test cases, even possibly less.
