What Joseph said, above, except:
-- Create and cache a Templates object, not a Transformer. Templates are
thread-safe in-memory representations of stylesheets. You then call
templates.newTransformer() every time you need a Transformer (which should
be pretty cheap); you can then keep each Transformer (on a single thread!)
and reuse it as many times as you like, or you can throw it away and ask
for a new one each time.
-- Oh, you'll need a build of Xalan-J 2.x to do this. 1.x is deprecated
and doesn't support these nifty new features.
